Wireless Network 

NJIT has wireless networking throughout the NJIT campus. 

  • "NJITsecure" - Traffic is encrypted and users remain authenticated without having to reenter credentials (until their password is reset). The NJITsecure wireless network should be the "preferred" over NJITguest since it is a fully WPA2 encrypted client to access point network communication. Authenticate using your UCID and NJITDM password. Click here for more information.
  • NJITguest – This network is intended for outside guests, and alumni visiting NJIT. It is an open, unencrypted network (password exchange during authentication is encrypted). It provides public Internet access and access to NJIT’s public Internet resources. Detailed instructions on connecting to NJITguest can be found here.
  • eduroam - Available to NJIT students, faculty, staff, and visitors from other participating institutions to connect securely to the internet. It does not allow access to NJIT's internal (intranet) network. To log in, use fully qualified account name including the domain in the format of xxx@njit.edu and active directory password. More about "eduroam".
  • NJIoT - a wireless network designed to support “Internet of Things” devices (e.g. Smart Televisions, Gaming Consoles, Voice AI, etc.). These devices typically will not work with or are difficult to use with NJIT credentials. The NJIoT network will work like your home wireless network with a simple passphrase/password, provided the device is registered with your credentials through the Registration Portal. Please read the Quick Start Guide for NJIoT Wireless Network before you begin.

Residence Halls: Every residence hall student has high-speed access to the NJIT network. (more info)

Off-Campus

VPN: Certain network services are only accessible from on-campus. A Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection allows you to "virtually" connect your off-campus computer to the on-campus NJIT Network. (more info)
