UCONN-GUEST is a non-encrypted, non-secure wireless service that visitors to UConn who do not have NetID credentials may use to access the internet. It does not require NetID credentials to log in. Instead, users must accept terms and agreements. This connection resets every few hours.

As of August 1, 2022, ITS has started blocking FTP, BitTorrent, and SMTP protocols on UCONN-GUEST.
