+I wasted 2 hours trying to set up my school's WiFi, so here's a quick reference
+for other students who might've tried connecting but ended up giving up.
+
+```
+$ nmcli connection edit type wifi
+nmcli> set 802-11-wireless.ssid eduroam
+nmcli> set 802-1x.eap peap
+nmcli> set 802-1x.phase2-auth mschapv2
+nmcli> set 802-1x.identity <avans username>
+nmcli> set 802-1x.password <avans password>
+nmcli> set wifi-sec.key-mgmt wpa-eap
+nmcli> save
+nmcli> activate
+```
+
+Keep in mind that your username isn't your student e-mail, but the first letter
+of your first name, and 7 characters from your last name, e.g. `Loek Le
+Blansch -> lblansch`.
