Chromebook Hints and Tips
- Once powered up, click on “Add a person” and enter your villavictoria.org Email address and password.
- At School, be sure to connect to the vva wifi connection (Not theVVAGuest connection) with the same credentials we gave you for GMail as follows:
- Click on the little wifi icon at the bottom right corner of the screen.
- Click on the wifi item in the list that pops up and select vva.
- Select PEAP as the EAP method.
- EAP Phase 2 authentication should be Automatic.
- Select Do Not check for the Server CA certificate.
- Enter your email ID in the Identity field (without the @villavictoria.org part.)
- Enter your VVA supplied Gmail password in the password field and click Connect.
- Click on the little wifi icon at the bottom right corner of the screen.
- When done using the Chromebook, click in the bottom right hand corner (where your person icon is) and click the shutdown icon to power the Chromebook off.
- Chromebook batteries like to stay charged so please don’t let them get down to a very low charge too often.
- Chromebooks work best with an Internet connection. If you will be away from a connection for a while, like for example going on a long drive, you can download files from your Google drive for working offline.
