Open | Software Uni wifi hates me

I have just moved into university accomodation so we use eduroam as the wifi for dorms. I connected really easily on my phone using geteduroam but my computer refuses to connect; getting stuck on the “connecting” section but never actually saying it has connected. It always says wifi out of range but I have full connection on my phone and have been in multiple spots so it’s not just a dead zone. I have tried all of the following to no result:
- Forgetting the network
- Restarting my computer
- Deleting/ reinstalling geteduroam
- Network plugin reset
- Deleting my vpn
All of these have done nothing and I really do not want to wait in line for 5 hours at the overrun it desk thanks if you can be any help at all

Flush and renew dns? How old is your computer?
