Remove the CAT app/network profile/certificate

1. Find the Network Profile or Configuration:

   • On most computers or devices, network settings or profiles (such as the one set up by Eduroam CAT) can be managed from the system’s Wi-Fi or network settings menu.

   • Sometimes, Eduroam CAT also installs a program or app that you’d remove like any other application.

2. Remove or Forget the Eduroam Network:

   • Go to your device’s Wi-Fi settings.

   • Find the list of saved or known networks.

   • Look for “eduroam” in the list.

   • Select “Forget,” “Remove,” or “Delete” to get rid of the saved eduroam network.

3. Delete Certificates or Profiles (if prompted):

   • Some devices (like Macs, iPhones, or some Androids) may have installed a “profile” or certificate for eduroam.

   • Go to the relevant “Settings” or “Profiles” area (often in Security or General settings).

   • Find the eduroam profile or certificate and choose to remove or delete it.

4. Uninstall the Eduroam CAT App (if installed):

   • If you have installed an actual Eduroam CAT application or program (usually on older Android phones or some computers), uninstall it as you would any other app.
