Make a network profile for 'eduroam'

• Select New Location...
• Select Show Network Port Configuration
• Check so only Airport (WLAN) is active
• Select Show Airport
• Select By default, join a specific network
• Type eduroam in the field Network. Let the password field remain blank.
• Go to the TCP/IP configuration. Verify that Using DHCP is selected.

The screen dump below shows the configuration of a new network profile called eduroam.

To make the eduroam profile work, it must be correctly configured using IEEE 802.1X

• Start the program Internet Connect
• Select the 802.1X tab
• Select Configuration: Edit Configurations...
• Type eduroam as a description
• Select Network Port Airport
• Enter your user name and password
• Select Wireless Network: eduroam
• Drag PEAP to the top of the list of authentication methods
• Press OK

The screen dump shows the configuration of 802.1X

• After entering the configuration for the first time, you have to manually press Connect to connect. The next time you choose Location: eduroam from the "apple menu" you are automatically connected to the correct WLAN using 802.1X.

• The first time you connect you will get a request to verify a certificate. Check it's authenticity and press Accept. If you already have installed the Certificate Authority (CA) public certificate correctly in your Keychain, this question will not appear.

The screen dump shows a working connection.
