Eduroam installation with Easyroam
Guide for MacOS devices
Using "HSW-Guest" Wi-Fi network Temporarily for eduroam installation
The eduroam Wi-Fi network is of course not yet available for the downloads mentioned below. You can therefore use the campus-wide HSW-Guest Wi-Fi network as an alternative.
Please note: The HSW-Guest Wi-Fi network is only intended for short-term access. After setting up the eduroam Wi-Fi network profile, the HSW-Guest Wi-Fi profile should be deleted from the device so that your device automatically logs in with the eduroam profile the next time you log in to the network.
Use HSW-Guest Wi-Fi
If you do not have a mobile phone network available, you can use the HSW-Guest Wi-Fi.
- Open the Wi-Fi overview.
- Select the HSW-Guest network and establish a connection with your university login details.
Renew an Easyroam profile
Note:
An Eduroam profile (certificate) set up via Easyroam is valid for 24 months. 14 days before the current Eduroam profile on the device expires, you will receive an e-mail with the subject "easyroam WLAN profile expires soon", stating which profile it is.
Renew an Easyroam profile
- To renew the Eduroam profile for the corresponding MacOS device, the installation of the profile must be repeated on the device as described above.
- The current profile for the device is then valid again for 24 months.
