Cisco Packet Tracer Login Error After Netacad Update Fix
Hey everyone, I'm a student just starting out with networking classes, and I've run into this frustrating glitch where I can't log into Cisco Packet Tracer. It keeps redirecting me to the Netacad site, but then it fails to authenticate properly. This started happening right after they rolled out some website changes – anyone else dealing with this? I've tried reinstalling, but no luck. Need help ASAP since my assignments are piling up!

Admin Answer

Yeah, I've seen this pop up a lot lately with the recent Cisco updates messing with the login flow. The trick is to use the "Skills for All" option instead of the standard Netacad login. Head to the Cisco Networking Academy site, sign up or log in through Skills for All, and download Packet Tracer from there. It bypasses the legacy system issues. If that doesn't cut it, clear your browser cache or try a different browser like Chrome. Worked for me and a bunch of others in my class – give it a shot!
