SSID: VPN/WEB

to the Flyer

The VPN/WEB network is open. This means, that there is no encryption of your traffic between your device and the access point. To ensure a secure connection only such services which utilize an encryption by default are enabled and require an authentication like the VPN Service of the TUHH.

After connecting, your device may display a message stating that no Internet connection is available.

After connecting to the wireless network, the following services are available:

Students of other universities in Hamburg may also use the VPN client of their institution.

Connect

The exact settings will vary from operating system to operating system. Usually the following information is required:

  • Network name: VPN/WEB
  • Network Authentication: Open
  • Data Encryption: none/deactivated
  • Network Type: Infrastructure
  • Assignment of IP addresses: automatic/dynamic/DHCP
After connecting, your device may display a message stating that no Internet connection is available and you must launch the VPN client.

General troubleshooting information

  • After connecting, you will receive a dynamically assigned IP address (via DHCP) from the network 134.28.176.0/21. This means your address should be in the range of 134.28.176.X … 134.28.183.X. The network mask is 255.255.248.0.
  • The default gateway is 134.28.176.1 and should be reachable via ping 134.28.176.1.
  • The VPN Service should also be reachable via ping 193.174.167.246.
  • The name resolution (DNS) should work. It always should be possible to open https://webvpn.rz.tu-harburg.de in your web browser.
    The TUHH automatically assign you the servers 134.28.202.14 and 134.28.205.14.
