Suffield Academy's primary wireless network is named eduroam. It uses a security feature called 802.1X which requires each user to log on using their own credentials (most home networks just use a single shared password for all devices). Because of this requirement, setup can be a little more complicated than joining a home network, and is different for different device types.

During the installation process you will be prompted to sign in to Suffield Academy using your Microsoft credentials (email and password). This is a required part of the process, and will only happen once as part of the initial installation. See below for specific platform notes.
