Eduroam (**edu**cation **roam**ing) is the secure, world-wide roaming access service developed to allow students, researchers and staff from participating universities to get wireless connectivity across campus and when visiting other participating Universities. Members of participating organisations worldwide can securely and wirelessly access the Internet using their regular wireless login credentials while visiting any other participating organisation.
## Connecting to Eduroam
UTS students and staff can connect to the Eduroam network using their staff/student credentials.
If you intend on using Eduroam at a participating University and haven't used it before, you should setup and test Eduroam while still on campus at UTS.
## Visitors to UTS using Eduroam
Visitors to the UTS from [participating institutions](https://www.eduroam.edu.au/eduroam-for-users/) can access the Eduroam network using the login credentials from their home institution.
It is important that you check the instructions available at your home institution for connecting and authenticating to Eduroam. If possible, test your equipment on Eduroam at your home institution before leaving.
