FYI: Eduroam wireless - no need to create wireless accounts for some visitors

Dear all,

This is a tip for visitors as well as when we are visiting other schools.

Recently I learned that I can connect to wifi at Univ de Montreal with
my McGill ID.
This is thanks to Eduroam, http://www.eduroam.org/

This also means that visitors from many other institutions can connect
to wifi at McGill, with their own ID from their own school. For this,
choose "eduroam" in the list of the available wireless network, and
log-in, as if you are logging in with your McGill wpa.mcgill.ca
network.

Eduroam has a huge network in Europe, and many in Canada and USA. For example,

In Canada, we can connect to (just partial list)
Simon Fraser University, University of British Columbia, University of
Alberta, McMaster University, University of Toronto, University of
Waterloo, Concordia University, École Polytechnique de Montréal,
Université de Montréal

In USA (partial list)
Cornell University , University of California , University of Chicago,
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, University of Maryland -
College Park , Brown University , Columbia University , Penn State
University, Stanford University, University of Michigan , Yale
University, Texas AM University , University of Wisconsin - Madison

Ciao!

Best regards,
Jihye
