Ottawa - Connecting to eduroam Wireless - Students
The eduroam service allows Lambton College students in Ottawa, to securely access college and internet resources via the "eduroam" wireless network offered at the Saint Paul University Main St campus.
To connect to this network, student users will require their individual c0# as username (in the form of c0xxxxxx@mylambton.ca) and associated password.
On a personal device, connect to the network/SSID "eduroam" while in a wireless-supported region of the SPU Main St campus. Deselect the "Connect Automatically" option, if you prefer to manually enter your credentials each use. Then click "Connect";
If you receive a connection error stating "Can't connect to this network", then click "Close" to the error, and then right-click the SSID and then select "Forget";
Try connecting again to "eduroam" and enter the configured c0# and password you set previously. Remember to use the format c0xxxxx@mylambton.ca. If you do not, the service will NOT authenticate! Click "OK";
Click "Connect";
You are now able to access online resources via wireless, using EduRoam!
