The eduroam wireless network is an international roaming service for secure wireless connectivity, which has been developed for the research and education community. It is the preferred wireless network for all University staff and students.

What’s the best method for me to connect to eduroam?

By connecting to eduroam, you accept and agree to abide by the University’s Acceptable Use of Technology Procedures.

If you are connecting from a device on campus and you can see eduroam in your list of available wireless networks, then:

1. Select eduroam

2. Enter your FAN@flinders.edu.au and then your password

3. Follow the on-screen prompts, including acceptance of certificates

If the above does not work, generally have trouble connecting or you just want to configure your device for eduroam from home/off campus, then try the University’s automated configuration tool. This will attempt to configure your device automatically for you.

If you would prefer to manually configure your device, the required settings are:

SSID	eduroam
Username	<FAN>@flinders.edu.au
Password	<FAN Password>
Authentication protocol	EAP (PEAP) with MS CHAP v2
Security protocol	802.1X with WPA2-Enterprise/AES
