Updating your Network Preferences
For the best WiFi experience on campus, set eduroam as your preferred or default network on your device, and remove or forget former networks. Since this process is device-specific, look up directions for how to forget a network and/or set a preferred or default network for your specific device. You may also need to forget your network if you have changed your password and eduroam is not asking you to reauthenticate your credentials.
