From now on, connect to Wi-Fi using eduroam

Published on 03-08-2026 18:38
As of 1 August, the 'UvA' Wi-Fi network has been switched off at all University of Amsterdam teaching and research locations. The 'UvA' network is no longer visible in the list of available Wi-Fi networks. From now on, eduroam is the standard Wi-Fi network for all students and staff. This change simplifies the wireless network and makes it future-proof.
