Connecting to eduroam on Nokia N9

If you try to connect to eduroam on your N9 using the automatic method it will probably fail and you will end up with an error message saying "Can't authenticate" without any further explanation. Follow the steps below to get it working:

  1. Goto Settings -> Internet connection -> Create new connection
  2. Enter eduroam as Connection name and SSID
  3. Set WPA EAP as Security method
  4. My university uses PEAP as WPA EAP type and EAP MSCAPv2 as EAP method, but it may vary between different universities.
  5. Enter your username and password where the username is of form username@domain as usual.
  6. Goto Advanced settings
  7. Enable Manual username and enter your username again, same as in step 5
  8. Press Save
  9. Goto Settings -> Internet connection -> Connect to internet and press eduroam and you should now be connected.

    The "manual username" step is was not required at KTH
    but needed at AlbaNova (Stockholms Universitet)

    ...Update
    When I turned on the HIDDEN WLAN option internet seems to work permanently on my nokia N9. Even if eduroam doesnt seem to be hidden here.
