Wireless connection

In many areas of the student dormitories, wireless networks (Wi-Fi) are deployed for the usage of students, staff and guests.

The available networks are:

• Huji Guest - open network available in some of the dorms (does not allow access to database)
• Huji Dorm - open network available in some of the dorms (does not allow access to databases)
• Eduroam – a network that allows full access to the internet and databases. It is available for university staff and students (instructions for opening an RA account). Students from other universities can also connect to this network with their own credentials.
