Configuration Tips

  • Before you configure your device for vuNet, remove all existing VUMC SSIDs from your setup.  For each wireless network (SSIDs - vummiv, PatientCare1, PatientCare2, PatientCare3), you will need to Forget those networks, turn your WiFi OFF and then ON or reboot before attempting to configure vuNet.
  • When entering the domain name and your vuNetID, try capitalizing the V in Vanderbilt or enter all caps.  This will resolve connectivity issues for some versions of Apple products.    Ex. Vanderbilt\janedoe or VANDERBILT\janedoe
