Tufts-Guest Wireless

The "guest" wireless network allows visitors & guests to use wireless service while on the Tufts campus without advance device registration and/or delay for activation.

Intended Audience and Use

Tufts’ guest wireless service does not require advance registration.  The network is provided for visitors and short-term guests and has limited access to the Internet and our internal resources. The Tufts-guest network is not intended for long-term use and has more stringent bandwidth restrictions than wireless for registered devices. For example, the tufts-guest network could be used by conference attendees and visiting lecturers, as well as non-student or non-faculty residents.

Limited Access

The tufts-guest network provides general internet connectivity similar to commercial wifi hotspots.

Limited Bandwidth

The tufts-guest network is rate limited for upload and download activity.

How to Connect

It is easy to connect to the tufts-guest wireless network, as it is intended to be a public service to visitors on our respective campuses.  A wireless device should see the “tufts-guest” wireless network and be able to connect instantly.

A short tip-sheet explaining the service and its use is available at:  http://training.uit.tufts.edu/pdftips/guestwireless.pdf
