 One account. Anywhere.

A registered subscriber can use this wireless network (wherever available) using a single user account. Account management is done by the home organization.

The use of roaming is simple, the subscriber´s properly set up device connects automatically when the eduroam network is available. Similar to the connection to roaming networks of mobile operators abroad. Hence the acronym: education roaming.

The service is free for all participants.
