You can’t immediately connect to the detected ‘eduroam’ network on a Mac OS 10.6.8 computer. Instead, manually define a network connection called ‘eduroam’ so you can include the correct encryption settings, and you might then have to also create a user profile to include the correct encryption settings:

• Select ‘System Preferences’ and choose the ‘Network’ option
• Select the 'AirPort' network from the list on the left, then click the 'Turn AirPort On' button if AirPort is not on already
• Select ‘Network Name’
• Regardless of what appears in the list of networks, select the 'Join Other Network' option
• Type in eduroam as the 'Network Name'
• Select 'Security' and choose ‘WPA2 Enterprise’
• Enter your eduroam username and your usual ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ network password. The User Name for staff will be your usual ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ network username. This is typically first initial and surname. Follow this with your institution’s domain (e.g. jbloggs@beds.ac.uk or mjones01@beds.ac.uk)
• The User Name for students will be your student number followed by @beds.ac.uk (e.g. XXXXXXXX@beds.ac.uk)
• The password is your usual ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ network password
• 802.1x should be left on 'Automatic'
  

• Enable 'Remember this network'
• Click on the 'Join' button
• If you are asked about a certificate, just click on the ‘Continue’ button
• After a few seconds wait, you should see that you are connected (your AirPort reports that it has an IP address)
• You should also see that you are authenticated using PEAP (MSCHAPv2)
• Click on the 'Apply' button.
