To access the wireless network of the University of Bamberg, you must have a valid user account (BA number + password).
Members of other universities or research institutions that participate in eduroam (DFN roaming) can also use the eduroam network at the University of Bamberg. If the login does not work, please contact your home institution to find out about the specifics of using eduroam.
Apple devices must not contain umlauts or ? in the password. If this is the case for you, you can change your password at any time using the following link: www.uni-bamberg.de/its/kennwort/aendern
The procedure is the same for older versions of iOS, only the appearance may differ slightly from these instructions.
