Should I Connect to Wolverine-WiFi or Eduroam?
Wolverine-WiFi
Wolverine-WiFi is our open network that anyone can connect to. This network is simple to connect to and is recommended for most users.
Note: While the network is “Open” and all data is still secure on the network itself, NOT all data is secure between your device and the access point. This does carry a small risk, and if you’d like to know more you can read about it here.
Eduroam
If you would like to have a more secured and convenient connection, this is the network for you. Eduroam is our secure network and requires a downloaded certificate in order to connect.
In addition, what makes this network great is that it’s available at most universities and UTA’s Frontrunner. This means if you register on Eduroam, you can connect ANYWHERE there is an Eduroam network! For a full list of where you can connect to Eduroam, check out this site.
This network is more difficult to connect to, and currently has issues on some devices due to security changes from manufacturers. However, it provides a higher level of security. The connection between your device and the access point will be encrypted, ensuring that you are protected from attacks.
