Although we’ve always encouraged logging into our eduroam campus wireless network using your Drake email address, it wasn’t required. This changed on Dec. 1, 2020. You must now use your Drake email address to log into the eduroam network. This network setting was changed to better maintain our network and ensure credentials are passed properly to access eduroam at other affiliated institutions.
In October, we sent emails to everyone who was logging into eduroam using their Drake ID. If you received this email and haven’t made this change, you’ll first need to forget the eduroam network on any device where you are connected. See Forgetting a Wireless Network (How-To). Once that is done, please connect to eduroam again and log in using your Drake email address.
Need a reminder on how to log into eduroam? Follow the instructions at Connecting to the eduroam Wireless Network (How-to).
If you have been working, learning, or teaching entirely remotely, you’ll need to make this change when you return to the Drake campus.
