A recent Grapevine question asked about the Eduroam network and whether the university is going to continue to use it.

According to Martha Mason, interim director for OIT user services, Eduroam one of two secure wireless networks available for the Fairbanks campus, and the rumor that it's going away is false.

OIT is reviewing the initial configuration and annual renewal process to improve the experience for users. Please look forward to continued Eduroam access in the future as well as a better way to manage the initial set up and annual renewal.

More information on Eduroam is available on the OIT website along with a complete list of wireless options.

Call or email the OIT Support Center with any questions you may have about the wireless networks.
