What is Eduroam?

Eduroam (education roaming) is a wireless service that allows students, staff, and faculty to use their own home institution’s wireless credentials to access wireless network services when visiting any other eduroam affiliated institution without having to set up a guest account.

 

How to set up Eduroam on your device(s)

 

Select the network symbol in the system tray (at the bottom of your monitor) to see your available wireless networks.
