In other locations on campus, you should connect to the eduroam network, following the instructions here.

Eduroam is the University Wireless Network, and supports a wide range of devices.
Eduroam should be used for all connections except gaming devices and internet-of-things devices (use SwanseaUni-Play instead).

All users are required to register each device to use the network. Connect to the SwanseaUni-Setup network to get started.
Read step-by-step instructions here.

Your username is your usual University email address (ending @swansea.ac.uk). A temporary password should have been sent to you in an email prior to your enrolment. Learn more about accessing your University account here.

If you’re experiencing technical difficulties, please submit a support ticket via the IT Service Desk or email ITservicedesk@swansea.ac.uk.
