Eduroam-WLAN on the campus of the University of Oldenburg
The University of Oldenburg participates in the eduroam service network. This allows all university members to gain network access on the campus in Oldenburg as well as at any other eduroam locations worldwide via the local WLAN with their University of Oldenburg user ID. Many German research institutions belong to the eduroam network; a complete list can be found on the pages of eduroam.org. Of course, guests from other eduroam institutions can also use the WLAN of Oldenburg University with the login data of their home institution.
In the public areas on the campus of Oldenburg University (lecture halls, seminar rooms, central library, cafeterias) you can use the WLAN network access via eduroam. However, the quality of this network connection depends very much on the number of competing end devices and can sometimes be very slow at peak times or not available at all for a short time. This is in the nature of things and unfortunately cannot be changed.
Please note: The offices and laboratories of the university are typically not equipped with WLAN. Please connect your terminal device there to the campus network via cable!
