About eduroam
Short for 'education roaming', eduroam is a global initiative that provides staff at education organisations with free, secure wifi access in a range of locations, both in New Zealand and across the globe.
More than 10,000 eduroam hotspots are available at government education agencies, universities, research centres, schools and other research and education institutions worldwide.
When configured, eduroam users can connect to a network connection at participating organisations automatically.
You should configure eduroam at your home institution before connecting at other institutions.
