Connecting to Wi-Fi

eduSTAR

Connect to the eduSTAR wireless network.
Enter your @education or @schools email and password.
Accept any trust certificates if prompted.

It's known that some devices aren't accepting email addresses for student connections.

Instead, try entering username: edu002\ABC124 (before the @ symbol of your email) and your email password.

Troubleshooting Wi-Fi Connectivity

Windows

To forget a network:

Click on the World or Network icon in the bottom right-hand corner of your taskbar.
Click Wi-Fi.
Right-click on eduSTAR and select Forget.

Occassionally, other schools add Wi-Fi via a Configuration Profile. If your previous school was using eduSTAR and you're struggling to connect, this may be the problem and a member of the ICT team will need to assist you.

In the "Identify" field, type in your school email address e.g., username@schools.vic.edu.au
