About SecureW2

SecureW2 is the university's recommended tool for connecting to the official campus Wi-Fi network. Using SecureW2 ensures that the correct security certificates are installed on your device. For your protection, be wary of unexpected Wi-Fi certificate prompts that appear as pop-ups, as they may not be legitimate or approved by the university.

Requirements

Forget the WolfieNet-Secure and Eduroam network on your device to remove any outdated Wi-Fi profiles or certificates.

Once you have forgotten the necessary networks (and uninstalled the SecureW2 app, if necessary) please follow the setup instructions below.
