Please use eduroam Devicemanager to generate eduroam credentials for every device in use! You will find a tutorial here. You'll need them to authenticate in step 3.

Attention: Using the Apple iCloud keychain synchronises the same eduroam credentials on every device!

Please note that login names generated with the help of eduroam Devicemanager will end with @rwth.edufi.de for members of the RWTH Aachen University and with @fzj.edufi.de for the members of the FZ Jülich.

You can still access the institute WLAN using a login name that ends with @rwth-aachen.de.

Step 1: Connect with RWTH-guests

For the automated configuration of the eduroam WLAN you need the configuration file of the German Research Network.

To download the configuration file, you need an internet connection. Within the university you can use the public WLAN "RWTH-guests". After establishing the connection to this network, another window opens in which you have to click on "ACTIVATE ACCESS".
Now you are connected to the RWTH-guests WLAN.

Step 2: Download profile

 On the homepage of the German Research Network (https://cat.eduroam.org/) you can find the profile for the different macOS versions. In this case the profile for macOS Mojave will be downloaded.

Step 3: Installing profile

Double-click on the downloaded file and confirm the following dialog by clicking on ”Continue”.

Step 4: Enter user data

Enter the following information:
Identity and password: generated eduroam credentials (You will find a tutorial here):

Step 5: Confirm changes

Enter your local user password if necessary.

Step 6: Removing the RWTH guest WLAN

To prevent automatic connection to the RWTH-guests WLAN, you must delete it from the stored networks.
