Internet Connection
In order to have access to the Internet connection for your laptop, you need to register it. Due to the large number of participants, we recommend that you register your laptop in advance, before your actual arrival to CERN.
TH department, CERN hostels and main buildings are also covered by Eduroam network. Please try to avoid to register to the CERN VISITOR network, but prefer CERN or Eduroam.
For register your device on the CERN network before your arrival :
- Follow the link to the network connection request form
- Enter your data and the hardware address and card type of your device (you can register at the same time both wireless and ethernet hardware addresses of the same machine)
- Enter your arrival and departure dates and the reason of your visit
as contact person select Gianolio Elena (TH-GS)
You can register as many devices as you need in the same way (please one registration for device)
Once at CERN, if you did not registered your device earlier or if something went wrong, select the CERN or Eduroam network, open a web browser and follow the indication you get on it.

- Fixed terminal computer access: Unfortunately, due to computer security protocols at CERN, it will not be possible to provide an account to log in by using the fixed computer terminals on site. The only way to access the internet is by using your own laptops, see above.
