Sierra 10.12.6 - Getting wifi adapter to work with Eduroam?

I have recently successfully installed Sierra 10.12.6 on my system and purchased an Edimax ew-7811un wifi adapter to go along with it. However, the adapter cannot connect to my university's wifi (eduroam). I can use the guest wifi, but when trying to log in as a student on eduroam it fails to connect after inputting my username and password.

When looking at the network window, the adapters status changes to Cable Unplugged. Does anyone know how to fix this?
