Hello,

do you mean the Android App (which is legacy),
or  the website cat.eduroam.org?
The latter is up and alive and serves everyone well,
both web browsers and app clients.
If it's Android, please tell me what contemporary device
supports wired out of the box, I would be interested.
If it's Windows, there may indeed be a glitch in the Windows installer.


If anything, I'd say that this is a "bug" in the Windows installer that CAT generates.


If a profile contains Wi-Fi and wired, and the installer is used on a system that only has wired, the better behaviour would be to install wired, rather installing nothing.


This should even be easy to fix - the check for existence of a Wi-Fi interface could be run only if the profile doesn't also contain a wired payload. I guess. It's Tomasz's code :-)


Greetings,


Stefan Winter
