There are two wireless services available at Carleton: CU-Wireless and Eduroam and both are free for students, faculty and staff.
Wireless is currently available in key locations across campus. To connect, all you need is a laptop or portable device with a Wi-Fi compatible network interface card and a MyCarletonOne account.
New Wireless Users
Configure your device to connect to CU-Wireless or Eduroam using XpressConnect at wireless.carleton.ca.
Simply launch the web tool and follow the steps provided. You will authenticate on the network using your MyCarletonOne account credentials. Do not enter your full email address or any partial domain with the username when accessing CU-Wireless.
You can configure your device from on or off campus. Once you are near a wireless hotspot on campus, your device will automatically connect to the network.
Please note: to use XpressConnect you must have the latest version of Java in your browser for the setup to function correctly. To download the latest version of Java, visit java.com/download.
Returning Wireless Users
We have recently updated our wireless certificate. As a result, if you have the CU-Wireless profile saved on your device, it won’t work with the new certificate.
To resolve this issue, you can either run the tool again to update the profile – simply go to wireless.carleton.ca, launch the web tool and follow the steps provided, or manually delete your old profile and then auto discover CU-Wireless without using the web tool.
Having issues connecting?
Ensure you have entered your MyCarletonOne credentials properly: firstnamelastname followed by your MyCarletonOne username.
