It provides the most access to UNI resources via high speed campus networks and Internet service providers.. Laptops, Cell Phones, and Tablets should use eduroam. It’s important to get your devices connected as soon as you arrive on campus. To connect to eduroam, please use your UNI CatID & password.

UNI Smart Devices

UNI Smart Devices is a Wi-Fi network at UNI, available in the dorms and a few select locations to enable devices like smart TVs, gaming consoles and other internet accessible devices. Its intended use is for devices that can’t connect to the eduroam network with a username and password.

UNI Guest WiFi
