Configuring wireless client devices for eduroam

The table below provides links to instructions on configuring various wireless clients on a variety of operating systems/devices for those users whose home site is participating in eduroam as an IdP (Identity Provider).

The implementation details of the IdP service of your home site will determine the configuration that you should use on your mobile device. One important factor is the authentication method(s) supported by your home site. The documentation here focuses on the two most common authentication methods: PEAP+MSCHAPv2, and TTLS+PAP. Not all wireless clients support both methods.
