SFU WI-FI SECURITY CERTIFICATE RENEWAL ON MARCH 4, 2023

To continue to provide stable and secure Wi-Fi at SFU, the WiFi security certificate will be updated on March 4th across all SFU networks and campuses.

This will impact all devices currently configured to the SFUNET-SECURE and eduroam WiFi networks.
 

What you need to know

  • Upon arriving on campus on or after March 4th, to access SFU WiFi networks you may be required to update the Wi-Fi security certification for each device you use to connect.
  • Your device will prompt you to accept a new SFU Wi-Fi security certificate, or to re-enter your SFU ID and password. Please do so to ensure your Wi-Fi certificate is updated.
  • If you have an SFU Managed Device or are using a Windows operating system, your update should be automatic, and no action is required.
  • If you are not prompted and not using a managed or Windows device, you will need to perform this action manually. A complete list of instructions based on operating system is available at cloudpath.its.sfu.ca. A manual update can be done at any time before March 4, on or off campus, however Android users will need to update on or after March 4.
