Introduction

To configure Eduroam, use the Network Manager. In case it isn't installed on your system, install it using the following commands, that depend on your desktop environment - network-manager-kde or network-manager-gnome.

Configuration

The following instructions are based on the LXDE desktop environment. The fields are very similar to Gnome and KDE Network managers.

1. Locate the Network Connections icon on your desktop and left click on it. Select the eduroam network. In case the network is not in range, you will need to configure it using the "Create New Wireless Network" option.
 

2. Enter the following settings in the new window, that just opened:

  • Wireless Security: WPA & WPA2 Enterprise
  • Authentication: PEAP
  • Inner Authentication: MSCHAPv2
  • Username: your University of Tartu username with @ut.ee added in the end - username@ut.ee.
  • Password: the password associated with your account.
     

3. Click "Connect".

4. When you get a warning about a missing CA certificate, click Ignore.
 

5. When the connection has been established, the Network Manager icon will display the signal strength of the network.
