Raspberry PI instructions: How to Connect to Eduroam Wifi at LSUS:
- Connect the RPI to a monitor via HDMI as well as a keyboard and mouse. Ensure the RPI is powered.
- Set a password if you have not already done so.
- Open the terminal icon at the top left of the screen.
- If you have not done so already, update and upgrade your RPi by entering the following commands:
sudo apt update sudo apt upgrade
- Reboot your RPi to finish the update and upgrade. You can reboot your RPi using the following command:
sudo shutdown -r now
- Re-open the terminal and type the following command to modify your WPA supplicant file: sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
- Modify this file to include the following content. Update the content accordingly to include your LSUS credentials. Your identity is StudentID@lsus.edu and your password is typically your MyLSUS PIN.
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev update_config=0 country=US network={ ssid="eduroam" key_mgmt=WPA-EAP pairwise=CCMP auth_alg=OPEN eap=PEAP identity="StudentID@lsus.edu" password="yourPIN" priority=1 }
- Save the file by entering ctrl+X then entering Y to confirm.
- Type the following command to modify your DHCPCD file: sudo nano /etc/dhcpcd.conf
- Modify this file to include the following content:
interface wlan0 env ifwireless=1 env wpa_supplicant_driver=wext,nl80211
- Save the file by entering ctrl+X then entering Y to confirm.
- After modifying your wpa_supplicant file, issue these commands to make them take effect:
sudo systemctl daemon-reload sudo systemctl restart dhcpcd
You could alternatively make the changes to your wpa_supplicant filetake effect by rebooting your RPI with the following command:
sudo reboot
Note: If you are still having trouble connecting, try adding the following to your wpa_supplicant.conf file:
phase1="peaplabel=0" phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
