Troubleshooting

What to check if you cannot connect to UniOfCam-Guest wifi

Please note: if you have a device that is more than 5 years old, it may not be compatible with the technology we use to run the UniOfCam-Guest wifi network.

Please ensure you disable any VPNs before attempting to connect to the guest network.

Visit an HTTP website if you do not see the login screen

Visiting an HTTP website in a web browser should force the Guest login page to appear. Most websites are encrypted and use HTTPS. Some HTTP sites have been created to force login pages to appear. Try http://neverssl.com or http://httpforever.com.

Make sure your software is up to date

Make sure you're using the latest version of your device's operating system, with all the updates and patches installed.

Ensure you have confirmed your email address (if you registered by email)

You will need to select 'Confirm' in the confirmation email to verify your account and receive full internet access.  If you do not confirm your email address, you will lose your connection to the UniOfCam-Guest wifi after 10 minutes.
