This documentation describes ways to establish a connection to the WPA2 encrypted network eduroam.

===== Preparation =====
Please make sure, that your WiFi network adapter is configured to automatically receive an IP address instead of a manual address. This can be configured in \\ System Settings-> Network and Sharing Center-> Change adapter settings-> WiFi adapter: Settings -> TCP/IPv4 .

In order to configure eduroam correctly, please use your **student e-mail address** (name.lastname@stud.uni-goettingen.de resp. n.lastname@stud.uni-goettingen.de) and your password.

**Members of different universities** have to use an account in the form of XXX@uni-kassel.de, XXX@uni-hannover.de, XXX@leuphana.de, XXX@uni-freiburg.de, XXX@uni-regensburg.de, XXX@abdn.ac.uk.
