Hello

We are making tests to expand 802.1X over the wired network. It would be very comfortable if we could use eduroamcat or geteduroam for that deployment.

The problem appears in desktop computers that only have a wired network and do not have a Wi-Fi interface

In this case, eduroamcat does NOT install a certificate nor profile.

It shows an error message saying that it can't install anything because there is no wifi interface.

We know eduroamcat is legacy and it will not continue in the next future.

Geteduroam does install a certificate, but it does not show the success message that it shows when the computer has a Wi-Fi interface.

And it doesn't activate the necessary windows service or change the necessary parameters in the wired interface.

Is this something that will be solved in future updates or do we need to set up our own additional workaround to solve it?

Hi Nicolàs

geteduroam does not have support for wired configurations yet. It has been on our radar, but it hasn't received much priority, sadly. We did mark the source code where we would need to implement wired support.
