iPad Wifi Onboarding

Onboarding an iPad is the process of enrolling the device onto the wireless network using a faculty or staff account. Only devices owned by the JCSS can be onboarded to use the JCSS wireless network. If you have received a new iPad or an existing iPad has been factory reset, the following instructions will allow you to onboard the device to the JCSS wireless network. Typically the device needs to be onboarding only 1 time. However, circumstances may occur that require it to be onboarded again, such as factory resetting the device.

Step 1: Open the wireless settings page on your iPad and connect to the JCSS-SETUP network (SSID).

Step 2: Open safari and navigate to a website. You will be redirected to the device provisioning page.

Step 3: Follow the onscreen instructions: Install certificates and login with your JCSS credentials.

Step 4: Wait for confirmation that the device has finished the onboarding process and received all device policies.

Step 5: Connect to the JCSS network (SSID). NOTE: You must manually select the JCSS network. iPad's will not automatically switch networks!
