Getting Started with eduroam
The easiest way to set up eduroam is to select the UNLV-WiFi network on your device, which directs you to the university’s Wi-Fi configuration page. There you will find step-by-step instructions on how to configure your laptop, phone, tablet, or other devices for the service. You can also watch a video with configuration directions for your device's operating system. It is recommended that you set up your device while on campus, using your active ACE login.
