In March 2014, Information Technology Services (ITS) joined eduroam, a free,
secure, worldwide Internet access service that allows members to easily connect
their mobile device to Wi-Fi when visiting other participating institutions.
Please share this information with researchers, staff and students in your unit
who may be traveling away from Florida State University this summer.
When
Available now
What
FSU faculty, staff and students can now connect to wireless Internet at
thousands of participating universities around the globe at no charge. As a
reciprocal service, campus visitors, including researchers and international
students, from other participating institutions enjoy free wireless access when
visiting Florida State.
Impact
Whether a researcher traveling overseas, an employee attending a regional
symposium or a student studying abroad, all Florida State faculty, staff and
students can access immediate Internet connectivity at any participating
institution, and all guests from participating institutions can access secure
Wi-Fi at Florida State without any special provisioning or preparation.
Details
Setup and login instructions for eduroam can be found on the ITS
websitehttp://its.fsu.edu/Network/NetworkMainCampus/WiFi/eduroam. The eduroam
network at Florida State is available only to guests. Florida State users
should continue to use FSU's existing wireless networks, FSUSecure, when on
main campus, and eduroam when they travel. A complete list of more than 5,000
participating institutions throughout the United States and worldwide can be
found online at www.eduroam.org.

We broadcast SSID 'eduroam' alongside with 'FSUSecure'. Since eduroam is
alphabetically ahead of FSUSecure, users searching for wireless will always see
eduroam listed at top.

Fellow WIRELESS-LANers:
We have successfully rolled out eduroam to our campus. However, everything we
have tried to educate our campus appears to have fallen on deaf ears. We still
have large amounts of Can I please have guest access requests - even when we
know they are coming from an institution that has eduroam.
Has anyone mounted a successful campaign to educate their campus about eduroam?
Does anyone have flyers, marketing material, digital signage graphics that
they are willing to share?
Thank you very much!
