eduroam is a network access solution that comprises an eduroam Wi-Fi service and an authentication system to enable you to connect your device to the eduroam Wi-Fi and access the internet - at whatever location/organisation you are at wherever the eduroam service is made available - worldwide. The eduroam Wi-Fi service you use is operated by the local institution or organisation at which you are connecting.
