Here is a tutorial on how to configure your iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch or iPod Touch (2nd Gen) to connect to NUS Wireless network. We will be using NUS WLAN SSID “NUS” instead of “NUSOPEN”, as “NUS” is protected by PEAP and it is much faster.
*UPDATE* It is now working with iPhone OS 3.0.
Instructions
- Launch Safari in your iPhone/iPod Touch
- Go to http://lesterchan.net/nus/iphone/
- Under Your NUSNET ID, key in your NUSNET UserID (EXCLUDING the domain (NUSSTU, NUSSTF or GUEST) portion)
- Click Generate
- A Install Profile screen will appear
- Click Install
- A Install Profile Warning Popup will appear
- Ignore the warning and click Install Now
- A Enter Password screen will appear
- Key in your NUSNET Password
- Click Next
- A Profile Installed screen will appear
- Click Done
- Go back to your Home Screen
- Go to Settings -> Wi-Fi
- Under Wi-Fi, select ON
- Under Choose a Network…, select NUS
- Wait a while, while it trys to connects
- A Certificate screen will appear
- Click Accept
- You are now connected to NUS WLAN SSID
Notes
- At Step 18, you may need to re-try Step 14 to 17 if it takes more than 1 minute to connect.
- At Step 20, you may need to re-try Step 14 to 20 if nothing happens when you click Accept.
- If you are going to reference this tutorial anywhere, please credit it to me. I spent a lot of time on figuring out how to configure my iPhone 3G to connect to NUS Wireless network and I have put together this tutorial to make life easier for all NUS students.

Hi Lester,
Are you an NUS Student? Me too. I can’t find connect to NUS network. Can only see NUSOpen instead. I will try it later.

Yes I am SoC Student, Year 3. You may need to be in certain areas to get NUS SSID. I can confirm there is NUS SSID in SoC and COM1

Ensure that your area has NUS wireless SSID first by using your laptop to check (of course your laptop need to be logged in to NUS instead of NUSOPEN to check)

Hey Lester. Not sure if it really works? Cause it doesn’t work for me.
I am using ipod touch 1st gen and have tried:
1) to go back home and reconnect when i couldn’t connect to NUS (it did appear among the networks to connect). Either it didn’t get to connect or it connected after a while without the certificate , which will eventually connect back to NUSOPEN.
2) rebooting my ipod and reconnect. I got to see the certificate but nothing happens after I click accept, except that the accept button went away.
I am kinda clueless now but it looks great and promising, good work anyway -)

I can confirm it works because I tested on 3 iPhone 3G (including mine) and my own 1st gen iPod Touch.
1) You may need to “forget” the NUSOPEN network because it may automatically connect to it.
2) You may need to do that a few times to accept the cert.
