The preferred way of setting up the eduroam SSID on any operating system is connecting to the wireless network “eduroam-instructions” then downloading the cloudpath utility that can be found at https://setup.wifi.siu.edu. The utility sets up the SSID automatically with little input from you.

For users in the residence halls, use this link to automatically setup the wireless networks: https://housing.wifi.siu.edu
