The graphical interface might differ a bit from the below screenshots depending on the desktop environment in use, but the required data should be the same. **Step 1.** Click on the WiFi icon, typically found in the upper right screen corner, and choose "eduroam". **Step 2.** You will be asked to fill in authentication details. {{ :ubuntu2204_eduroam2024.jpg?300|}} * Security: WPA & WPA2 Enterprise * Authentication: Protected EAP (PEAP) * Anonymous identity: eduroam2024@h-its.org * Domain: h-its.org * CA certificate: download {{ :eduroam2024_ca.crt |}} to your computer, then select it * PEAP version: Automatic * Inner authentication: MSCHAPv2 * Username: ////@h-its.org * check "Ask for this password every time", or (not recommended) enter the password. This is the same password that you use to access your e-mail. \\ \\ \\ \\ **Step 3.** Click on the WiFi icon again and choose "eduroam". If "Ask for this password every time" was checked (as recommended) in Step 2, you'll be asked for a password - this is the same password that you use to access your e-mail. After entering the password, the authentication should succeed and access to the "eduroam" network should be granted.
