How to connect to eduroam WIFI network?

The eduroam network is a global network covering thousands of universities and other organisations in more than 100 countries. Using an account set up on the eduroam network, you can log in to any eduroam network in the UK and around the world.

Below is all the information you need to set up a connection to the eduroam wireless network.

When logging in to eduroam, always enter your full domain name (realm) @coventry.ac.uk

Example login: loginname@coventry.ac.uk
and your Coventry University password.

Eduroam provides a single solution that accommodates all the mobile connectivity requirements of an institution - supporting local users connecting to the local network, visitors connecting to the local network and local users connecting to other participating networks.

Eduroam removes the need to supply temporary accounts to visiting users, so reducing the administrative and support burden imposed by the ever-growing movement of students and researchers between institutions and countries.

Because visiting students, staff and researchers use their eduroam 'home' credentials to access Wi-Fi services on campus, they have a quick, easy and secure way to get online without campus IT support. The secure login system means that passwords are kept private at all times and visiting staff can be allocated to a separate VLAN to keep traffic isolated. However, in eduroam a misbehaving user can always be identified with the help of their home institution.

More about the network you can find on the webpage below: https://eduroam.org/
