Quick Tip

If your device uses a private address, also known as Media Access Control (MAC) Randomization, you may need to re-authenticate to the network each time the device connects. To maintain a constant connection, disable this feature for eduroam on Apple and Android devices. Apple support provides Information about managing private addressing.
