Scheduled
In order to maintain a high level of service and security on our wireless network, a necessary security certificate update must be performed.

What do I need to know?
On Tuesday, May 14th at 6 AM we will update a security certificate for the eduroam wireless network. You can expect minimal disruption from this change. Depending upon your device and operating system, you may be prompted to accept the new security certificate. There are no impacts to the wired network or LeopardGuest guest wireless network.

What do I need to do?
Once the change is made, your devices may prompt to accept a new certificate or ask that you expect to find 'eduroam' in this area. Clicking allow or accept should quickly allow you to connect. In rare cases, you may need to re-enter your email address and password. Help connecting to eduroam.

Why is the change happening at this time?
We maintain several normally scheduled service windows for maintenance which is required to maintain the reliability of our infrastructure or introduce new features.
