Eduroam – Connect Android

These instructions explain how to connect an Android device to the eduroam wireless service.

There are three main steps to complete:

Ensure ‘Secure credential storage’ is enabled

Open Settings, then Security
Ensure Secure credential storage is enabled (ticked). You may have to choose set password first (set it to something you will remember).
If you can’t remember an existing credential storage password, you can do Settings, Security, Clear storage to clear the password, and then choose set password to set it again.

Connect to your 3G connection or the Bristol-WiFi-Setup open wireless network.
Open the web browser and go to: www.wireless.bris.ac.uk/certs/is-cacert.crt
Type University of Bristol CA if asked to name the certificate.

Go to the main menu
Choose Settings
Choose Wireless & Networks
Choose Wi-Fi settings
Scroll to the bottom and choose Add Wi-Fi network
Enter the Network SSID as eduroam. This is case sensitive.
Set Security to WPA-EAP or 802.1x Enterprise
Set EAP Type to PEAP
Set Phase 2 Authentication to MSCHAPV2
Set CA Certificate to University of Bristol CA (This setting might not be present on all devices)
Leave Client Certificate blank (This setting might not be present on all devices)
Set Identity to your Bristol username with lowercase @bristol.ac.uk added on to the end. For example: ab1234NOSPAM@bristol.ac.uk
Set Anonymous Identity to @bristol.ac.uk (must be all lowercase)
Set Wireless password to your normal Bristol password
