The mailing list for users of the eduroam Configuration Assistant Tool (CAT)

["Francisco J. Medina Jimenez" <fran AT ugr.es>]

Hi,

It is not necessary to configure eduroam again, you can eliminate user 
information disabling & enabling cache:

netsh wlan set profileparameter name=eduroam cacheUserData=no
netsh wlan set profileparameter name=eduroam cacheUserData=yes

Next time you try to connect to eduroam, user&password will be asked again.

Hope this help.
Regards.
