Answer

Please note that you sometimes fails in WiFi settings for an unknown problem that we can't resolve.

Delete old account from device

If your device retain property of old WiFi account, you can't connect to UTokyo WiFi with new one. You can't reach a setting phase to enter ID / password.

In this case you should delete old account from your device.

  2. Select [Network & Internet] -> [Wi-Fi] -> [Manage known networks]. You would find [UTokyo-WiFi], then select it and "delete".

Now you can enter new ID / password. If you still get rejected, go to the next section.
