Connection Settings

There is almost no difference between connecting to an eduroam network and connecting to your own institution's network. You need to connect using the same authentication and encryption method, as well as the same username and password, that you use when connecting to your own institution's network. The only difference from your own institution is that the SSID, i.e. the “Wireless Network Name”, is different. If the SSID used at your institution is the same as that of other institutions, you can connect directly without having to take this step. You can check the SSIDs of eduroam member institutions on the eduroam Turkey participant information page.

You can find out whether the institution you are visiting uses the same SSID for its own users, as well as its eduroam coverage areas, on this page and on the information pages of the institution you are visiting.

Users of the Microsoft Windows 7, 8, Vista and XP operating systems need to use the SecureW2 software in order to enter their IEEE 802.1x and EAP settings.

You can install the SecureW2 package with its default settings and enter the information specified below in the user information window that appears at the end of the installation. For the SecureW2 client to be active, Windows must be selected as the wireless adapter manager and third-party software must be disabled.

The instructions below, explaining how to connect to the eduroam network on different operating systems, are provided as examples. (Ankara Medipol University staff and students should enter their e-mail address ending in ‘@ankaramedipol.edu.tr’ as the username and their e-mail password as the password.)
