Connecting to AirPennNet with Windows Mobile 5

From Provider Notes

Introduction

Installation of SecureW2 is required for the following instructions to work correctly. The file we installed was SecureW2 EAP Suite 1.0.6 available from the SecureW2 website.

These instructions should work for Windows Mobile 6, but at present they have not been tested at the University. When we confirm that they do work, we will break out the instructions on a separate page (if necessary).
