Global Protect/Home WiFi Issues
In order to connect to home WiFi networks, students must set up their devices correctly at school. All students must log into the Hub and the Global Protect apps at Jefferson. If they do not, their iPads will not work on non-APS networks. At home, students should see the letters VPN at the top of their screens. They do not see these letters while connected at school. Here are set-up and troubleshooting tips:
