What is eduroam?
Eduroam is a collaborative network that provides current students, faculty, and staff with fast, secure, and reliable access to wireless services (Wi-Fi) on UFV campuses, as well as at participating institutions in 70 territories worldwide.
Use the same login credentials on every eduroam network, regardless of where you are.
Configure your device or phone at UFV before you attempt to connect at another institution.
