For Hostel: To get your Hostel IP address click here
For Departments: Contact your department technical person to get an IP address.

    2. Set the IP in your device as follows (steps for Windows 10) :

    A.  Select Start , select Settings, then Network & Internet .
    B.  Select Ethernet , then select/click the Ethernet network you’re connected to.

    3. Open any Internet website (avoid www.google.com as it has some captive portal issues) in your browser; it will show a captive portal asking your IITG login credentials. Login to the portal and start accessing internet using the same. If automatic captive portal login page doesnot appear, then open this login link in your browser: https://agnigarh.iitg.ac.in:1442/login?

Important Notes:
    • CCC strongly recommends users to logout from the system once their Internet session is over. If by mistake any user closes the login window, then the user may go to the link: https://agnigarh.iitg.ac.in:1442/logout?  to logout (you can bookmark this link for easy reference). CCC shall not be responsible for any misuse due to unattended login session of an user.

  • CCC also strongly recommends users to use Firefox Browser only for agnigarh login for uninterrupted internet access. Once authenticated successfully in firefox you may minimize it and use any other browser for accessing internet thereafter. Google chrome as well as some other browsers doesn't support authentication time-out feature and has some limitations.
