How do I register for CampusNet?

 

CampusNet is Royal Holloway’s residential and campus-wide network. It is available via wired or wireless connection.

CampusNet supports a wide variety of network-capable items, and most common devices such as laptops, smartphones, and tablets are automatically supported by CampusNet. When you use your device for the first time on campus and select CampusNet as your network, a registration page should automatically appear.

If it doesn’t, open your web browser and visit campusnet.royalholloway.ac.uk. This should redirect you to our registration page.

There are two options: Students and staff, and External users. Select Students and staff and enter your username (in the format abcd123) and password.

Once you have successfully entered these details you will be registered to our network. You will not need to enter these details each time you want to use the network, just the first time. 

We also allow various internet-enabled devices including printers, games consoles and other smart devices. If your device uses Wi-Fi, but doesn’t have an in-built browser or display (for example, printers or Amazon’s Alexa) you can register it yourself at campusnet.royalholloway.ac.uk. If you are connecting a device to the wired network to the wired network in your room, it will require manual registration. There is more information about how to register your device on the CampusNet section of the intranet.
