In order to access eduroam, you must have a CWL account. CWL accounts are available to registered UBC students, staff and faculty.
Once you have a CWL account, set up eduroam automatically with our AutoConnect Utility
For UBC faculty, staff and students, access to eduroam varies slightly from logging in to other UBC services. Your usual CWL ID is used for access and @ubc.ca must be appended to the end of the CWL ID in order to identify UBC as your home institution. For example:
| Login: | Your_CWL_ID@ubc.ca |
| Password: | Your_CWL_password |
