Description
Eduroam (education roaming) is the secure, world-wide roaming access service developed for the international research and education community.
eduroam allows students, researchers and staff from participating institutions to obtain Internet connectivity across campus and when visiting other participating institutions.
As a guest you will normally be given access to the Internet, and will not have access to local facilities such as applications, printing, etc. The level of access will vary between institutions. This will normally allow access to your web based email, web or ftp based filestore and any other web applications.
Testing
It is recommended that you try it out at Glasgow University to ensure it will work when you go to another participating institution.
