How will I benefit from eduroam?
For users: Easy, seamless access to internet
Users enjoy the convenience of seamless internet access using their home institutional credentials at any institution connected to the eduroam network. This benefits researchers, educators and students by facilitating their research activities.
For institutions: Streamlined internet access for guest users and reduction of IT administrative workload
By implementing eduroam, institutions would enjoy significant cost savings through eliminating the need to create temporary internet accounts for visiting eduroam users. More resources could then be devoted to managing essential campus network services.
