How do I connect my Android device to eduroam?

To connect your Android device to the eduroam network, you need to perform a so-called "onboarding" of your device. To complete the onboarding, you must be connected to a network of internet access.

Step 1: Connect to our onboard network

If you are at Dalarna University Campus and are not connected to a network with Internet access, you can use our onboard network (onboard). If you already have internet access over another network, you can continue to use it and continue with step 2.
