IllinoisNet Wireless – Google Glass XE12

 
You can only add wifi networks to Google Glass by scanning a QR code with the settings, and by default, Glass can’t connect to Enterprise level WPA2 networks, such as IllinoisNet.

However, you can install a free application that will enable you to connect to any wifi network.

1. Download GlassWifiConnect from github.

2. Unpack the zip file, and install GlassWifiConnect.apk onto Glass (information about how to install an application on Glass can be found here.  This requires using ADB and having your Glass in Debug Mode.  It is also good to know how to uninstall apps.)

3. Generate a QR code using the following string, substituting your NetID and Active Directory password for “username” and “password”:

WIFI:S:IllinoisNet;U:username;P:password;E:PEAP;PH:MS-CHAPv2;;

For your reference, GlassWifiConnect can be used to connect to any network.  If you don’t want to use a setting, such as PEAP, leave out the “E:PEAP;” part:
WIFI:S:ssid;U:username;P:password;E:PEAP;PH:MS-CHAPv2;;
IllinoisNet uses:
EAP method: PEAP
Phase 2 Authentication: MS-CHAPV2

4. Say “Ok Glass, add wifi network” to run the app and scan the QR code.  Glass should connect in a few seconds and you’re done!

NOTE: Be aware that online QR code generators may or may not send the text (containing your password) in the clear to their servers.

In my experience, you will need to scan the QR code every time you want to connect.  You can print out the code or have it saved on your smartphone, but remember, it contains your username and password in plain text, so be very careful with it.
