eduroam instructions for Symbian OS

↖ Eduroam internet access – Lietuvių, English

Configuring eduroam or any other WPA-Enterprise network on Symbian phones is quite difficult compared to other devices; fortunately, it only needs to be done once.

Step 1: Adding the network

Adding the network (via 'Network destinations' menu):

1. Go to Settings → Connectivity → Settings → Network destinations → Internet
   (Older versions: Tools → Settings → Connections → Access points)
2. Select Add new access point → Wi-Fi and enter these settings:
   • Network name: eduroam
   • Network mode: Infrastructure (public)
   • Security mode: WPA/WPA2
   • WPA mode: EAP
3. Open the newly-added “eduroam” entry to edit its settings.

Adding the network (via 'Wi-Fi' menu):

   • Network mode: Infrastructure (public)
   • Security mode: WPA/WPA2

   (If there is no 'Edit' option, use the 'Network destinations' instructions instead.)

After you've selected the "Edit" menu item, you'll see the network's parameters.

1. Open Wi-Fi security settings
2. Make sure WPA mode is set to ‘EAP’
