eduroam for iPod, iPhone

Remove Winulum

If you wish to use an Applie iPod with eduroam you will have to delete any existing Winulum connection, because otherwise an eduroam connection cannot be established.

Below Einstellungen, Wi-Fi-Netzwerke, press the arrow to the right of winulum, then press Dieses Netzwerk ignorieren and confirm this again.

Configuring eduroam

Then press the Home button on your iPod/iPhone, and the button Einstellungen:

Press Wi-Fi (must not be connected), then choose the network eduroam:

You will be asked for your user name and password. Please enter your user name (JGU account name), followed by @uni-mainz.de and the corresponding password. After that press Verbinden in the lower right.

Make sure you enter your real user name - not, for example, your mail alias, which is different!

The wireless network eduroam is also offered at other universities. If you wish to use eduroam at other universities, when entering your JGU account data you will have to add @uni-mainz.de to your JGU account name (even though it looks similar: this is not your e-mail address). Without that addition, at another university you would be regarded as a local user - and because presumably no user with your combination of user name and password exists there, a connection would then be refused.
