Employees only: Access the uOttawa network from home

Gain access to restricted campus sites and resources from, off-campus locations, by using the VPN client with your login credentials.

How to get the VPN client: two options

  • On campus only Download and install the appropriate VPN client, from the software zone either onto your laptop or onto a USB key for transfer to your desktop at home. OR
  • Buy the CD from the Cosmos Computer Store, located in the University Bookstore, for $6 (the VPN client and anti-virus are bundled on one CD), and install the VPN client on your home desktop or laptop.
