eduroam for the University of Alberta community
The eduroam network you see at the University of Alberta campus will not work if you are from the U of A.
Please use one of the other wireless networks like ualbertawireless or UWS.

Authenticating at other institutions
Connecting to eduroam at other institutions will be very similar to connecting with UWS. Your password
will be the same but your username will have '@ualberta.ca' added to the end. So if your username at the
U of A is 'yourccid' than your username for eduroam will be
yourccid@ualberta.ca.

Rights and responsiblities
Acceptable use of the eduroam network is determined by hosting university. If you are connecting to the
University of Alberta's eduroam network you can read our internet usage policies here.
