Unable to connect to CUED and unable to modify or delete the CUED wireless profile on Windows 8 or 10
Unlike previous version of Windows there is no GUI for removing wireless network profiles, other than for profiles that are already correctly configured, so in order to remove a misconfigured wireless profile the netsh
command will need to be used from a Windows Command Prompt.
To list the configured profiles use the following command:
netsh wlan show profiles
To delete the CUED wireless profile use the following command:
netsh wlan delete profile CUED
Connecting to CUED from Linux systems using wpa_supplicant
Below is an example network configuration that can be included in the wpa_supplicant configuration file on a Linux system, for example /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
, when configuring the CUED wireless network manually.
network={ ssid="CUED" key_mgmt=WPA-EAP eap=PEAP proto=RSN pairwise=CCMP auth_alg=OPEN identity="CRSid@eng.cam.ac.uk" password="central Engineering Department password" }
Missing certificate root authority
In order to verify the wireless authentication server identity when connecting to the wireless network a certificate for the Comodo AAA Certificate Services root certificate authority will need to be available to perform the necessary check. This certificate is often available by default on many systems but can otherwise be downloaded directly here.
