Please use eduroam device manager to generated eduroam credentials for every device in use. You will find a tutorial here. You'll need them to authenticate in step 10.

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 9:

In the tab "Sharing" there is no configuration to be done.
