Re: [87attendees] eduroam (Re: IETF wireless)

All,

I have access to eduroam, but almost always use ietf ssid. Eduroam
periodically asks for login and password, ietf connects right away. Many
academics do not even bother to setup their devices for eduroam (sometimes
it is tricky for Android or WP, do not remember which device exactly caused
me trouble). But it is cool to have eduroam (especcially when there are no
alternative open networks).

Best regards,
Andrey Lukyanenko.
