iOS (iPhone/iPad) - Get Connected to Eduroam
To properly configure your device to connect to Eduroam, go to eduroam.stonybrook.edu. This tool will help you install and maintain your Wi-Fi profile with the latest security certificate, SecureW2, allowing you to connect to Eduroam securely without needing to sign in each time.
About SecureW2
SecureW2 is the university's recommended tool for connecting to the official campus Wi-Fi network. Using SecureW2 ensures that the correct security certificates are installed on your device. For your protection, be wary of unexpected Wi-Fi certificate prompts that appear as pop-ups, as they may not be legitimate or approved by the university.
