Staff or Students visiting ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº from other institutions using eduroam

When visiting ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº your credentials are forwarded on to your home institution for authentication. The method of authentication (e.g. EAP, PAP, MSCHAPv2) is what is supported by your home institution.

Support is provided by your home institution and not ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº!

Even though you are physically located here at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº and connecting through the ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Network infrastructure, any support routes at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº (e.g ISD IT Services) will refer you to your home institution for support. 

As such we cannot support non-¹û¶³Ó°Ôº visitors, but below is a useful list of tips & help:

1. Prior to visiting ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº you . Furthermore, you should confirm you can connect to the eduroam service when physically located at your home institution prior to visiting ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº. 

2. Encryption: ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº supports Enterprise WPA1/ TKIP and Enterprise WPA2/ AES. 

3. User Name and Password: The domain name of your home institution must be specified when authenticating. This is to ensure your credentials are forwarded on to the correct institution e.g.[userid]@[domain] or  zcxxano@ucl.ac.uk

4. If all else fails, contact your IT support at your home institution - not ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº. In turn, they may contact ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº but this is the correct support route.

My institution does not support authentication from external institutions

If the institution you are visiting from does not support authentication from external institutions you will need to use the ¹û¶³Ó°ÔºGuest Wi-Fi service instead.

Please note in order to use ¹û¶³Ó°ÔºGuest you will need a sponsor at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº who will be responsible for getting you a ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº user account; without this you will not be able to access the service.
