Eduroam - Visitors
Eduroam at Lakehead University allows Visiting Students, Staff, and Faculty to access wireless networks with their user@lakeheadu.ca credentials when visiting other participating institutions.
It also will allow Students, Staff or Faculty visiting Lakehead University from participating institutions to access wireless here on campus using the eduroam network without needing a guest account.
In many cases it is best if you are able to setup and connect to the eduroam network at your home campus before travelling, this will ensure that your credentials are working on that network.
For a list of participating institutions and other general Eduroam information, please visit the Eduroam website.
