I remember an order to strictly separate EDU and not-EDU usage, when some students asked for permission to extend the wireless to a refugee housing project. The reason that was given to us at the time (about a year ago) was the EU aid law, prohibiting cross-subsidization between funds for EDU and funds for local government. At least in Germany EDU institutions are also instructed to keep a closed user circle (in order not to become a Telco).

We have a campus in London, but not sure why anyone would just add Govroam to their Eduroam spaces. The writer says both are "free" which discounts capacity and bandwidth needed to provide the services. We already see huge amounts of Eduroam "squatters", not in a hurry to donate network to the government as well. -----Original Message----- From: Mike Atkins [matk...@nd.edu<mailto:matk...@nd.edu>] Received: Thursday, 04 Jan 2018, 8:34 To: WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU<mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU> [WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU<mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU>] Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Eduroam and Govroam Does anyone have more detail on this?
