Does anyone know how to remove a WiFi network from Google Glass? My WiFi at work wants you to consent to a privacy policy which Glass can not accept so I don't get a data connection. When I tether it to my phone, it keeps reverting back to the work WiFi network. Any suggestions?
There's a few things you can try.
1) Go to Glass ->> Settings -> Wifi -> Forget.
2) In the My Glass app, pair your device, select Wi-Fi, select the network you want to use.
3) Good Old Factory reset.
Also, as per a commenter above - this Doesn't belong here at all.
For questions such as this, your best bet is to contact one of the Glass Guides, either by email or phone. They can talk you through the process or help with any other problems you may have. Make sure you have your ID ready (the one they sent you as part of the invite).

I am setting up my AWS DeepLens and all the steps have been successful until I try to connect to my home WiFi. How do I fix this issue?
I created a hotspot on my phone to test against a different network and this connection was successful. Then, I switched back to my home WiFi and it connected successfully.
This section of the troubleshooting guide will also fix the problem.
We found that the AWS DeepLens only has one network adapter which it uses both for its own hotspot and connecting to the network. If you are connected to it via any other means (e.g. via a phone) it will throw a hissy and start dropping the connection, repeatedly and seemingly randomly.
When we connected a monitor directly we then found it was stuck on a viewable password prompt, hence why it was not connecting to our network.
Best method by far (and from our experience, only usable option) is to connect directly to the device so you can see what it is doing. To do this you need USB keyboard and mouse, and a mini-HDMI to HDMI cable to hook up a monitor. This will free up the network card to do only one thing.
When connecting please note that the default admin password on ours was "aws_cam". This does not seem to be noted anywhere in the documentation. This will change when you go through the setup process and sync it with your AWS account.
Repeat the process by inserting a pin in the hole at the back of DeepLens. Wait for a few seconds, the wifi indicator (the middle light) would blink and then you can connect with Deeplens wireless network. Then you can open http://deeplens.config where you can configure your home wifi and complete the setup.
I have an AWS IOT button that i'm trying to connect to the open wifi at my office. The problem is, our open "no-auth" wifi has one of those "terms of use" buttons you have to click in a browser before you are connected. Can the AWS IOT button get passed that?
Seems like it only works on wifi that is locked down vie SSA.
Anyone know a workaround?
Unfortunately the button doesn't support captive portal networks.
Normally we advise the network operator to whitelist the button's MAC
address, but I see you've already ruled that out.
One option you have is to use a travel router to bridge the captive
portal network to a non-captive portal network. These travel routers
are typically designed for hotel use, and so handle captive portal
networks well. You'll probably have to first connect to the
non-captive network with a phone or laptop to click agree, but then
all other devices on the network shouldn't see the login page
afterwards.
Note that this may be seen as circumventing the captive portal
network's usage or security policies, so please check with the network
operator.

discover the device's mac address
remove the device's power source
configure your laptop's wifi card to override its built-in MAC address and instead assume the IoT device's MAC address
sign on to the wireless network and accept terms with your laptop, spoofing the device's hardware address
return the laptop to normal configuration
power up the IoT device
PROFIT! :) ...at least until the portal's login timeout window expires.
I study in a university where all of us have an id/password combination to use the internet. Is it possible to connect Google Glass to such an Enterprise WPA 2 network? If yes, how? And if no, is there a solution for this?
It looks like you can't connect to WPA2 Enterprise as of yet with Glass. For now I'd submit a ticket to Google through their issue tracker if I were you. Glass Issue Tracker
EDIT: Because WPA2 connection isn't a developer issue you should contact the Glass team here instead: Glass Guide Team Support
The only way I was able to get this to work was to find a cheap router, connect it to the wired network, and then associate Glass with the router's network (which you have set up with WEP or WPA or nothing).
I have also used the "share my internet connection" feature in OS X to share an ethernet connection over AirPort.
...I hope someone chimes in with a better answer, but hopefully this might be enough to get you started?
For a quick test, you could turn on Portable Wi-Fi hotspot on your smart phone and connect that way. This can only be a temporary measure really, because you can't simultaneously connect to your University Wi-Fi so you would have to use your own data. Not a permanent solution, but OK if you want to do a quick test.
On the other hand, there does seem to be a Glass app you can install here as a work around.
Another alternative is to check if your University has a "guest" network, which is usually a standard connection (i.e. not Enterprise)
I know (guess) it's some sort of centralized peer-to-peer connection going on there. But then, how it's established? The apps themselves act as clients and servers. They connect to some central server, populate the user's node with data such as IPs MAC addresses and rest. But then what?
Do they establish a direct socket connection between the user computers? If yes, how they avoid the routers?
Do they transfer the data through the central server?
The reason why I ask is that I wanna build a Remote Desktop application that will be able to stream the screen view in real time to the connected client app(s). I know there a tons of them out there, but 99% are slow. I know it's possible to be close to realtime, OnLive does it. The 2 RDCs that work with speeds close to realtime are LogMeIn Pro (which I don't want to pay for, because I need only HD stream fromt the paid package) and Radmin (which is windows-only).
I'm ready to code it (in C/C++/Objective-C), but I just don't know how to design the thing.
does anybody know agood way in granting a connection from one service to another, so that both services benefits fromeach other?
I would like to have an easy but never the less safe way to do a connection between my server and another server, but I don't know how to do that.
It should be ...
easy, so that neither the user nor the service providers have to waste alot of time
traffic effecient, so that traffic is not wasted and conenction is fast
encrypted, so that no person in between can use the transmitted data
and it should be an open and flexible standard, so that there could be more connections to other services (with my server in the middle of this star connection and no connection in between all providers) and that I don't have to pay a fee ;).
the example in the title is something I think about, because when you have a twitter account you somehow connect facebook to your account and facebook can show your twitterfeeds on your account.
but I don't want a provider to gather a lot of information beside the really important one that the user want to transmit. so I don't want the provide to get the username of my user and I don't really need to know how my user is named there.
It's like a post-office box. you just have to know where to put your letter, but you don't need to know the box owner's name.
and I don't want the mail-carrier to know what he is delivering, so it should be encrypted.
every clue how to do that would be fine, because I don't know anything about this :)
thank you in advance, Andreas
