2- Troubleshooting

Windows 7

you may have to configure manually the connection, similar to how described in the Windows XP documentation.
See the instructions below (sorry if it is in italian by now):
apri centro connessioni, gestisci reti wireless, crea manualmente,
nome=eduroam
tipo=WPA2-Enterprise (o uno dei WPA2)
crittografia=AES
avvia automaticamente=No
clicca su "cambia impostazioni" PEAP (Protected PEAP),
memorizza credenziali = No
1) pulsante "Impostazioni":
mettere spunta UTN-UserFirst-Hardware,
Password protetta (EAP-MSCHAP v2),
pulsante "configura", togliere spunta “utilizza automaticamente nome utente Windows” (IMPORTANTE!!!)
2) pulsante "impostazioni avanzate":
specificare modalità autentificazione = Y
scegli = autenticazione utente o macchina

When you connect to Eduroam and it asks the credentials, insert username =  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it , password = myGIApassword

Windows phone

To access the wifi (WPA2 for example) use the following configuration: select WPA2, connect, insert GIAuser, insert GIApw, choose: no certificate  

Windows XP

Da quando sono cambiati i certificati (12/04/2021 circa) chiede ripetutamente la login (identità convalidante ?non valida)

Nei dettagli PEAP, togliere spunta "convalida certificato"

3- How to request wifi access for conference participants

First of all consider

That participants of Verona and other universities may use the Eduroam network.
The other participants may use the Verona Wi-Fi, here are pdf Instructions to connect to the Verona Wi-Fi (original document written by Alessandro Gnoatto).

If you prefer to create official University of Verona accesses  

See pdf rules for conference Wifi and official description of what is to do (you need to login).
The official description can also be found here: MyUniVR > Come fare per > Informatica, wi-fi e applicazioni > GIA - Gestione Identità di Ateneo > Creazione credenziali temporanee: frequentatori temporanei, ospiti ed esterni. Then go to section "Account temporanei per congressi e seminari".

Basically you have to do the following:
* Go to ServiceDesk (old platform), insert a request choosing the type 
001 - DIREZIONE INFORMATICA > 05 - GIA - Credenziali di Ateneo > Richiesta account esterni temporanei GIA > Congressisti
and specify the short name and year of the conference (for example EWEPA2011).
* Your request should then be approved by the secretary (Chiara Bernardi).
* When you or the secretary get a message that the ServiceDesk issue is closed, ask the secretary to forward the list of usernames and passwords to you.
* During the conference registration make sure you associate the credentials to the person they were given. The participants must write down their ID card number and country and sign to confirm that they accept the rules. Example:
