Connecting to the university wifi is such a pain on Raspberry Pi 400 because the default settings were not right and it was impossible to select the right one in the UI. Please follow the following steps:
- In the UI, connect to the WIFI you want to connect to and enter your credentials.
- If it wouldn’t connect, use the following command:
cd /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections
sudo nano YOUR_SSID.nmconnection
Edit YOUR_SSID accordingly.
- Delete everything in the file, and put the following content into the file. Modify the bold fonts as highlighted below as needed. Then you should be able to connect.
