Wi-Fi on Campus

We currently have three wi-fi networks on campus: HSGM-WLAN, eduroam and HGU-Gaeste

HSGM-WLAN and eduroam can be accessed by all university staff and students with an active HSGM-Account.
HGU-Gaeste is for guests and guest lecturers who don't have an HSGM-Account. Log-in is with time-limited Surf-Tickets.

The network team is working constantly to optimize the network coverage, especially in peak areas such as lecture rooms.

Please be aware that you are using a "shared medium", which you are sharing with all other users in the vicinity, and that reception can also be hampered by building materials and distance.

For a more reliable connection, we recommend that teaching staff use a cabled network (LAN) or save content such as videos.
