Network

The network of ETH Zurich, both WLAN and wired network, are provided and maintained by IT Services of ETH Zurich (ITS).

How to Connect

For mobile devices using the wireless network of ETH is the most convenient.

In public rooms such as CAB F 31 or G 41 you can also connect laptops using a cable. UTP plugs there are configured for public docking.

D-INFK members can ask your IT Coordinator or isginf for a wired connection with a fixed IP address in their office.

Use VPN

For a secure connection when not at ETH we recommend to use VPN once you have established general internet connectivity, for instance at home, in a coffee shop or in a hotel.

Guests

All D-INFK members can create guest accounts for network access that are valid six days at https://password.ethz.ch » meine Services » Tagesgast.

Conferences

For conferences where many users need WIFI access we recommend to order a group account for WIFI access, i.e., one login and password that you can hand out to all conference attendees.

To order such a login log in to http://idts.ethz.ch/hdweb, select Group account and fill in the form with the information of your conference.
