Install a certificate

Some Wi-Fi and VPN networks require your device to have a security certificate before the device can connect to the
network. You can install a certificate to help identify your device. Typically, when you install a client certificate, a
certification authority (CA) certificate is installed on your device at the same time.

1.

Connect your device to your computer using a USB cable.

2.

Copy the certificate or keystore to the root of the internal storage space on your device, your media card, or your

Google Drive

account.
