Interesting. If I tell the device to forget AirBears2, I can get the
eduroam connection to give me the certificate to accept. After a couple
of tries I got it to accept and connect.

Going back to reconnect to AirBears2, I get the "Unable to join the
network 'AirBears2'" message. In other words I have reversed the problem.

As long as eduroam is functionally the same as AirBears2, I may as well
leave this device set that way. I don't plan on any globe-trotting very
soon, but one never knows.

Which brings up another question: is the eduroam address space conflated
with AirBears2? or is there a specific range set aside for it? I only
ask in case I need it for connection diagnostics with any of the servers
I manage.

This is a really nice step forward, by the way.
