TUDevice

Most mobile devices (smartphones and tablets) can be used on the TUSecure wifi network without any registration process. Simply select the network TUSecure and enter your TU Network credentials.

However, some internet-capable tech devices (e.g. Xbox, Playstation, Nintendo Switch or Wii, e-readers, Roku, Apple TV) may not support TUSecure, which uses 802.1x authentication. If this is the case, you can use the TUDevice wireless network. Select TUDevice in the list of available networks and enter the password trinityu.

Note: Certain devices, including smartTVs and Amazon Echo, will only connect if they have been added to an approved device list. To get your device listed, please email helpdesk@trinity.edu and include the device type and its MAC address.

eduroam

Trinity is an eduroam institution. Eduroam (education roaming) is an international roaming service for users in research, higher education, and further education. It provides researchers, faculty, and students easy and secure network access when visiting an institution other than their own home institution.

In order to access the eduroam network from a different campus and get access to Trinity resources from afar, simply download the eduroam Configuration Assistant Tool. You can set up this tool from any device (Windows, Mac, and Linux computers and iOS and Android mobile devices) and you simply have to choose Trinity University as your home institution and sign-in with your TU Network credentials.

In addition to all Trinity Acceptable Use Policies, eduroam users must abide by the eduroam Acceptable Use Policy.
