Switch to eduroam wireless network, DUFacStaff going away

This semester, ITS launched eduroam (education roaming), a new wireless network at Drake. Students, faculty, and staff can access the eduroam wireless network at any eduroam-participating institution worldwide. By connecting to eduroam on campus, using your Drake email and password, you will be able to use the eduroam network whenever you travel to an eduroam-participating institution. In Iowa, that includes University of Iowa, Iowa State, and University of Northern Iowa.

The eduroam network is available in over 1,000 locations in 100 countries, so if you lead a J-Term course, or attend a conference, you may be able to take your wireless network with you.

The eduroam network is replacing DUFacStaff on Dec. 31. You must log into eduroam using your Drake email address, rather than your Drake ID number. This ensures that your credentials are passed securely anywhere you connect to eduroam.
