Wireless Network Configuration (Wi-Fi)

Which Connection?

Utah Tech University has Wireless access available in all campus buildings and in many outdoor locations. The connection is fast, reliable, and secure. Encryption is used for both student and employee connections, ensuring your safety and security online.

If you have a Digital ID

Two wireless offerings are available for students, faculty, and staff, Trailblazers and eduroam.  The Trailblazers wireless network provides secure access to the University network.  If you frequently travel to other educational institutions, you may want to set up the eduroam network as well.  When visiting an institution that offers eduroam your device will automatically get guest access using your UT credentials.  When you are here at UT, eduroam behaves the same as Trailblazers.

If you live in Campus Housing

Mobile phones, laptops, and tablets will connect to Trailblazers or eduroam. Gaming consoles, streaming devices, personal assistants, and other devices will typically connect to ResidentLife. Click the red ResidentLife button below to learn more.

If you are a Guest

For visitors and guests without access to eduroam, the University offers a third network, UTguest.  UTguest is an open, unencrypted network, similar to what you might expect in a hotel or airport. For the best experience, students and employees should set up Trailblazers or eduroam on their devices.
