Eduroam

Education Roaming (eduroam) is an initiative that offers internet access to its member institutions at all member locations by using the user’s individual login data.
Thanks to eduroam, students of other universities can use the THWS WLAN and THWS students can use other universities’ WLAN, for example at Universität Würzburg.
To be able to use this service, it is important that during the installation process from https://cat.eduroam.org users choose the profile of their home institution (THWS students: Technische Hochschule Würzburg-Schweinfurt) as well as their usual login data (THWS students: k-number@fhws.de).

WLAN for guests/external users

Guests and persons without valid THWS access data or eduroam access can use the free hotspot @BayernWLAN of the Free State of Bavaria for their mobile devices. No registration, passwords or login data are required. (Note: the licensed e-media cannot be accessed via these hotspots)
