Hi,

The change was merely about the "eduroam" SSID itself; it previously
came with a TKIP profile included; but not any more.

An additional SSID can still manually be configured with TKIP support.

If you looked at the non-binary Apple OS X / iOS profiles: for them,
there is indeed no change, as the configuration profiles on that
platform do not make a distinction - everything is just "WPA", and
includes WPA+WPA2 and TKIP+AES.

So: we are not aware of any issues in that regard. If there was a
problem on a Windows installation, a bit more detail would be needed.

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
