More about eduroam
Eduroam (Education Roaming) is an international collaboration between research and educational institutions for secure wireless internet access. Eduroam provides wireless access to Internet both at one’s own institution and when visiting other eduroam member sites. Eduroam is for instance available at all major Norwegian airports. You can find a list of eduroam hotspots worldwide on this website: https://eduroam.org/where/
This means that NIH staff and students have access to eduroam at NIH campus and at many other universities and colleges in and outside of Norway with their NIH username and password.

Guests who do not have eduroam access can use our guest network which is “nih-guest”. A more detailed description can be found here: Gjestenett - Norges idrettshøgskole (nih.no). You need to have a mobile phone available to receive a one-time password.
