You looking for a secure, seamless, automatic and world-wide roaming internet access service, that uses a single WiFi profile and set of credentials to provide a full roaming and guest network access service.
You are tired of entering usernames and passwords through insecure web browser forms.
eduroam (education roaming) gives students, teachers, researchers and staff quick, secure and easy access to fixed and wireless networks at their home institutions and at other institutions that offer the service, whether in Kenya or elsewhere.
eduroam is based on the most secure encryption and authentication standards in existence today. Its security by far exceeds typical public and private available hotspots.
Your login credentials are never exposed at the visiting institution. Your device will establish a secure encrypted tunnel to an authentication server at your home institution and it will verify your credentials and decide if you may use eduroam at the remote site.
Please be aware that when using the general Internet at an eduroam hotspot, the local site security measures at that hotspot will apply to you as well.
For instance, the firewall settings at the visited institution may be different from those you are used to at your home institution,
and as a guest you may have access to fewer services on the Internet than you have at home.
To connect to eduroam, your home institution must be providing the eduroam service.
Check if your home institution is listed in eduroam Participating Institutions and request for an account, typically, its an email address and a password.
If your home institution is not currently participating in eduroam, please encourage them to visit joining eduroam
or contact KENET through support@kenet.or.ke.
Please do not be tempted to guess credentials while connecting to eduroam SSID, it will not work
If you are experiencing an issue connecting with eduroam, please contact your home institution IT support team.
