Remote access (VPN)

WiFi

In most of the university buildings you can access a wireless network with your notebook, tablet or smartphone. By the way, this works via the eduroam-project on most colleges in Europe.

WiFi-Access for devices, that are not assigned to a person

If you need access to the WiFi for e.g. IoT devices (Info displays, 3D-Printer, ...), that are not assigned to a dedicated person, you do not have to apply for a Function account. Instead you can utilize the dedicated WiFi "sum" and operate the devices in an individually protected subnet, utilizing a special passwort mechanism.

To request a VLAN in the "sum" WiFi, please contact the NWZ-Hotline.
