  • Open Wi-Fi settings from the upper right part of the screen and turn on Wi-Fi by pressing the switch → .

  • After turning on Wi-Fi, press Wi-Fi Settings.

  • In the Wi-Fi window that opens, find the eduroam connection and press Connect.

    1. Identity - select the identity you want to use when connecting to the eduroam network.
    2. Account Name - enter your UT username.
    3. Password - enter your UT password.

    5. Click OK.

  • Click Wi-Fi Settings

  • Click the icon next to the eduroam network and select Forget This Network.

  • The network connection will be disconnected, and the eduroam network will then appear under the Other Networks section.
