WiFi access (eduroam)
The university's WiFi offers unlimited access to the internet as well as to many internal services, such as searching in journal catalogs, internal websites or printing from your mobile devices. The logon is part of the worldwide eduroam federation, so that participants of one institution can also use the access at all other institutions (including many public places).
Within reach of a university access point, you will find the SSID eduroam. Please do not log in manually but use the automatic tools provided:
In addition to eduroam, the older WiFi networks UMRnet_staff and UMRnet_students are still available. UMRnet_guest may also be available for guests who cannot set up eduroam (or not with reasonable effort) on their devices.
Target group
Students, staff, guests
Requirements
- Central User Account (Uni Account) with WiFi authorization
- or an account of another institution participating in eduroam
Status
WiFi access is so far only available in parts of the university, you can see exactly where in the detailed list of access points(Uni-Internal/GER). Our aim is to significantly increase the coverage area. As before, however, comprehensive WiFi coverage will only be available in individual, selected buildings in the medium term.

For the authentication at the access points, Philipps-Universität Marburg relies on a central authentication and key management using WPA2 Enterprise / IEEE 802.1X via RADIUS servers. Unlike in many private WiFi networks, where you share a single security key with, for example, the whole shared flat or all family members, you are automatically assigned your own security key at the university. For more information, please refer to the explanation of the operating concept (Uni-Internal/GER).
