Troubleshooting
Sometimes you may encounter issues with connecting to the wireless network on campus. Following are the more common issues that are experienced and some suggested solutions.
First make sure that you are in a wireless supported location. We have extensive wireless coverage on all our main campuses and remote teaching sites. Outdoor areas near the buildings will generally have decent coverage, while the further you move from a building, the weaker the coverage becomes.
First of all - try to connect again. Wireless networks are susceptible to signal loss or timeout.
Check that you’re entering your full ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø Email Address and Password correctly. Test that it works for other ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø Online Services like Webmail, if not then email ithelpdesk@jcu.edu.au and request a password reset for your ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø computer account which should resolve the problem.
Alternatively, the issue may be with the Wi-Fi password or wireless certificate stored on your mobile device. To Forget the Network on your device do the following:
Android
- Enter your device's Settings via the app or gear icon
- Tap on Connections
- Tap on Wi-Fi
- Touch and hold on eduroam and then tap Forget network from the menu that appears
iOS
- Go to Settings, then tap on Wi-Fi
- Tap the blue "i" icon to the right of the name eduroam
- Choose Forget this Network
- Confirm network deletion by tapping Forget
Now reconfigure your wireless network by following the setup instructions above.
If you've come from another institution that uses eduroam then you may have an existing profile saved to your iOS device that will need to be removed before you'll be able to connect to it here at ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø. To do that perform the following steps:
- Go to Settings
- Then go to the section General → Profiles or Profiles & Device Management
- Tap on a configuration profile you would like to remove from your iOS device
- Tap Remove Profile at the bottom of the configuration profile screen
- Enter your passcode (if required)
- Confirm that you would like to remove the selected configuration profile from your device by tapping Delete
- Restart your iOS device to complete the profile removal
Now reconfigure your wireless network by following the Apple iOS setup instructions above.
If you are getting prompted for a credential storage password when you try and configure your Android device to connect to the ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø wireless network and you’re not sure what that is then you will need to reset it. You can do this by going into the Settings → Location & Security, scrolling to the bottom and selecting Clear Storage. Then navigate back to your WiFi settings screen and tap the eduroam network and select the Forget option. Then repeat the setup steps.
Further Assistance
If you require further assistance with configuring your device to connect to the ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø wireless network then support is available for Staff and Students on both the Townsville and Cairns campuses, more information can be found here.
