Wireless networking at Cambridge

The Lapwing Wireless Service is the wireless gateway serving the University of Cambridge, providing wireless hotspots at various locations throughout the University. Lapwing supports two services:-

  • The browser-based service is available to holders of Raven accounts who are registered as current users (principally current University staff and students) and to guests of the University who have a temporary Lapwing ticket.
  • This is the simpler connection method as it requires no special configuration.
  • eduroam, an international initiative, for academic visitors or internal users. To use eduroam you will need to explicitly configure your wireless device. If you are a visitor to Cambridge you need to do this before you arrive in Cambridge. Instructions for Cambridge users are available in the these pages.
