What can I do when connected to the eduroam service?
You will have secure internet access via your Web browser, just as you would at a desktop or classroom PC. This will enable you to connect to the Staff and Student portals, e-journals and e-resources, WebCT, and to read e-mail via Outlook Web Access or Studentmail. Authorised members of staff may also access MIS systems such as Student Records and QSP. In addition, University of Aberdeen users will be able to use e-mail clients such as Outlook or Eudora, and will be able to print to classroom printers. The Virtual Private Network (VPN) provides you with secure, authenticated access to University resources and to your H: drive over the wireless networks Eduroam and ResNet. See our dedicated VPN web pages for more about setting up and using the VPN. You will not be able to open a telnet connection via the wireless network. Direct connection to SMTP servers from the University networks is not permitted. This is to prevent spammers and viruses from using the University to launch attacks. Y
