If the setting ‘Use random hardware addresses’ is enabled, this needs to be disabled.
To turn off this setting follow the steps below:
If your device has been connected to eduroam before and is now having issues it may be necessary to remove eduroam from your saved networks to resolve connection issues. You will find your saved Wi-Fi networks within the WiFi settings of your device.
If your device’s system time is not correct, then you will not be able to connect to the network. Ensure that your timezone is set to London GMT and that the date and time is correct. Try unchecking ‘Set device time automatically’ and then re-enabling it within your Language and Time settings. Your device’s time should update.
If your device will not connect to eduroam or is unable to discover any wireless networks please turn it off, wait up to 10 seconds for the power to drain and then turn it back on again.
If your device’s software is out of date, you will not be able to connect to the Wi-Fi. We recommend running all system updates for your device and then trying again.
If you’re still having issues connecting please contact the IT Service Desk on 01905 85 7500.
