At some locations you will be able to make use of the academic Wi-Fi network eduroam.

You can then surf the Net wirelessly by using the username and password of your school/college/university.

The use of eduroam falls under the ethical code of your school. If there are any problems, contact the school’s servicedesk.

How to connect with wireless network: eduroam

This can be done in 3 simple steps:

  • Connect to the wifi-network eduroam
    • Devices with a slower WiFi adapter can only connect via: eduroam-2.4
      • In this case, We recommend that you purchase the ASUS USB-AC53 WiFi Adapter for a better internet experience
  • If required, fill in the username and password of your school!
    You will need to add the school’s suffix to your username so that we know whose school your account belongs to (usually @school; non-exclusive list below). Your password remains unchanged!
  • If requested accept the proposed security certificate once

Example:

 School loginEduroam login
Login:MyUsernameMyUsername@schoolsuffix
Password:MyPassword123MyPassword123

See list below of already well-known school suffixes.

  • CA-Certificate: Use system certificates
  • Identity: Your username@schoolsuffix
  • Password: Your password
  • Domain:
    • if username from us (e.g. s00121001) fill in “smarteye.eu”
    • If you are a user of UGent (e.g. mynameis@ugent.be), please enter “ugent.be”.
    • Other instances have not yet been verified, you can then try to fill in the last part of your school email address (called the realm), e.g. as it is at UGent “ugent.be”. Normally this is the part behind the “@” symbol but can sometimes be something else like e.g. if your school email address is “mynameis@mijn.hogeschool.be” (is fictitious school account) the domain can possibly be “hogeschool.be” or “mijn.hogeschool.be”, please test the different possibilities. If it still doesn’t work, please contact your school about this.

Are you unable to connect with a correct username and password despite the above manuals? Make sure your device is updated with latest software and security updates, not forgetting to tick the boxes for any optional updates.
As a last resort you can contact the service desk/ student services of your own school for more information on how to use eduroam with your school/college/university.
