The Westport Public Schools has implemented certificate based authentication for any personal device that needs to connect to our secure Wi-Fi network. A certificate is not needed to connect to the guest Wi-Fi network. Not all services are available on the guest Wi-Fi network so it is best to connect to the secure Wi-Fi network.
Each personal device will be issued a security certificate that is valid for one (1) year. The secure network will accept a maximum of three (3) personal devices on the network per user. Carefully read and follow the instructions below for your specific device. For further assistance, students, please visit the school library during regular school hours.
