Eduroam users

The University of Bath provides support for Eduroam. BUCS (Bath University Computer Services) provide advice for using Eduroam.

Encryption WPA2 AES (enterprise)
Authentication Protected EAP (PEAP)
Inner authentication EAP-MSCHAPv2

Non-Eduroam users

If your host institution does not support Eduroam we will have a limited number of usernames and passwords to access the WiFi network. Note you will have to sign a form agreeing to the local terms and conditions before you are provided with a username and password.
