eduroam
Queensborough now offers free, secure Wi-Fi access across the entire campus via eduroam using your CUNY Login credentials.
CUNY students, faculty and staff can configure an eduroam wireless network connection on their devices to access the internet through an eduroam Wi-Fi hotspot at CUNY campuses or anywhere else in the world. Visitors from other institutions participating in eduroam can access the internet through CUNY eduroam Wi-Fi hotspots as well.
