This page helps you connect to UNSW’s new certificate-based Wi-Fi for your Android Device. Click Get Online and follow the prompts to install your eduroam certificate.
Detailed instructions are provided below to guide you through each step.
Instruction steps and images may vary slightly depending on the device version/type. You can check if your device type and operating system supports the Clearpass Onboard Requirements here.
Step 1
Establish an internet connection
If you are connecting on campus, connect to the “UNSW-GetOnline” Wi-Fi network.
Note: Once your device is onboarded, you will need to forget the “UNSW-GetOnline” Wi-Fi network to automatically connect to eduroam when on UNSW campuses.
If you are connecting off campus, ensure that you have a reliable connection to download and install the Wi-Fi certificate.
Step 2
Download the Clearpass QuickConnect application
Search and navigate to Clearpass QuickConnect app page in the Google Play Store.
Select Install.
Note: DO NOT delete the app after the setup as you will lose access to eduroam
Make sure to read the Terms and Conditions carefully. Select I agree, then select Next.
Then select your device type – UNSW managed or non-UNSW managed.
Type in your UNSW credentials and complete MFA when prompted.
Step 5
Download the certificate
Select the link I have already installed QuickConnect. This will download the certificate ‘quick1x.networkconfig’.
The UNSW eduroam Wi-Fi certificate is an annual certificate.
This means that you will need to renew this certificate every 12 months. When the eduroam certificate is due to expire, UNSW IT will send you reminder email 30 days before expiration. To continue your secure access to UNSW Wifi you will need to complete this process again.
Step 6
Install the certificate
Install the certificate by tapping the certificate.
This will launch the ClearPass Quickconnect application.
Note: the way to open the file may vary between android versions
Select Allow, then OK to finish connecting to the Eduroam network.
Once the onboarding wizard finishes loading, select OK.
You will now be securely connected to the eduroam Wi-Fi network every time you are at participating institutions.
