UCB Wi-Fi Options include Eduroam and Berkeley-Visitor:
Eduroam, the preferred network for UCB, allows you to access UC Berkeley online resources both at UCB, and while at participating institutions worldwide.
Eduroam requires you to set a WiFi Key.
Berkeley-Visitor, UCB's public WiFi network, requires CalNet authentication each time you try to access a licensed resource.
Need help with the above? Students may contact Student Tech Services at 510-642-4357 or sts-help@berkeley.edu; anyone may contact the Public Health/Optometry Librarian.
