eduroam provides a fast, secure, and reliable wireless network that can be used in all academic buildings, residence halls, and some green spaces on campus. You can connect multiple devices such as laptops, tablets, and smartphones to the eduroam network using your HawkID@uiowa.edu and HawkID password.

Since the University of Iowa is part of the eduroam initiative, when students, faculty, and staff visit other academic institutions that utilize eduroam, they will automatically be connected to wireless internet without having to reenter their credentials

Some devices that are not capable of the security protocols used by eduroam, such as gaming and entertainment devices, will not be able to connect to eduroam. Instead these devices will need to be connected to UI-DeviceNet.
