Lost Device
If you no longer have access to your original two-step device (i.e., lost, stolen, or broken), then please follow the instructions in our Two-Step: Account Recovery article.
Before You Start
You may need the DUO Mobile app installed before you follow the instructions below.
Two-Step Verification is an increasingly important aspect of account security. However, sometimes, it might not be clear what to do if you have a new phone and need to update your Two-Step settings.
PennKey
- On your laptop or desktop, navigate to Duo Device Management Portal
- Log in with your PennKey credentials
- Select a login method by clicking Other options
- Do not use Hardware Token as an option
- Enter the 3 digit code provided by the login method
- If using the same phone number but a different or new device choose for your # to be sent a call or text message
- Choose Add a device
- Follow the instructions to install Duo Mobile on your new device
- Open Duo Mobile and either:
- Approve the push notification OR
- Enter the 3 digit code
- Approve the push notification OR
- Congrats-- Two-Step verification is now set up on your new device!
For logging into Google@Wharton accounts, setting up 2-step Verification is not necessary as signing in already prompts Single-Sign on with your Pennkey credentials.
Note: If your account was created after December 2023, these steps do not apply to you.
