eduroam in a Nutshell

eduroam is the name for an international community of university and college institutions with an agreement to share network resources with all members as they travel. What this means is that individuals from participating schools who come to the University of Hawaii to visit--whether on business or pleasure--will be able to get a secure Wi-Fi network connection using their username/password. A temporary guest account is not required. Likewise, the reciprocal is true where our UH users can travel to other participating eduroam campuses and easily get on their network using your own UH username and password. This document explains how to configure your Android device, so you can easily secure Wi-Fi access when you visit other institutions.

In the U.S., the participating institutions can be found at the eduroam US Institutions Map. There is also an eduroam International Map showing thousands of participating institutions worldwide.
