This is a complete guide on how to connect to the University of Guelph (UofG) eduroam wireless network on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Linux) using the GNOME desktop environment in 2026.
Crucial Step: You must select DigiCert_Global_Root_G2.pem for the CA certificate to authenticate with UofG CCS servers.
On Ubuntu 24.04, these System CA certificates are located in the /etc/ssl/certs directory.
