Eduroam in the University’s Windows computers

The eduroam network settings and all required certificates have been installed on the Windows computers at the University. If the computer is located within reach of the eduroam service area, it will automatically try to connect to the network.

Other eduroam instructions for Windows computers 

The University of Helsinki has several wireless networks:

Please note! The HelsinkiUni network is visible on the list of wireless networks on all devices at university campuses but only works on centrally managed university staff Windows laptops (automatically). This means you cannot connect to the network using your university credentials on e.g. Mac laptops or smartphones. Also, for security reasons, the network does not unfortunately work in the so-called research workstations (the names of the computers start with LSx-).

    If wireless networks are available, a notification will appear in the Windows notification area. The network connection notification will show up when you place your mouse pointer on the network icon in the notification area. 

    • By clicking on the network icon, you can view the list of available networks. Select Eduroam from the list and click Connect.  
    • Once you are connected to the network, the network connection list will show eduroam with the text Connected, secured. 

    See the Detailed help tab for more detailed instructions.
