Q. What is the VPN and how do I connect to it?
Some online services and resources are restricted to use from within the University of Portsmouth network domain. This means you normally won’t be able to access them from another network (e.g. via your home broadband provider or a company network). To address this the University provides the VPN service which will allow you to access services and resources from external networks as if you were on campus. Information on how to set up VPN can be found here.
If you have any issues connecting to the VPN please visit one of our IT Help desks located across campus or contact us on 023 9284 7797 or take a look here for help and advice
Note that some resources may require you to enter a username and password for off campus access. These are listed on our Passwords for Resources page.
