eduroam

ICTS has become a part of Eduroam, a global Wifi roaming programme across academic campuses, through ERNET, India.

eduroam is the secure, world-wide roaming access service developed for the international research and education community.

eduroam (education roaming) allows students, researchers, and staff from participating institutions to obtain Internet connectivity across campus and when visiting other participating institutions across India and internationally across 54 countries. When you can see and connect to the ‘eduroam’ network, you will be able to access it using your ICTS-One-Account credentials.

Most of the configuration will be one time only. Thus, enabling easy access to the internet from other universities.

Institutions in India supporting eduroam can be found here.
