Train WiFi · UK
Is LNER WiFi safe?
Free WiFi on LNER trains with an email-and-password sign-in. Knowing the real sign-in address is the easiest way to spot a fake.
Reasonable for browsing. Join “LNER WIFI” and check the sign-in page is at wifi.lner.co.uk (or lner.on.icomera.com on older trains), which LNER publishes. LNER’s WiFi is Friendly WiFi certified, a content filter rather than encryption, so keep to HTTPS and check before banking.

What the sign-in page should ask for
LNER’s sign-in uses an email address and password. Check the address bar first: LNER publishes wifi.lner.co.uk (and lner.on.icomera.com on non-Azuma trains). A login page on any other address that asks for your password is a red flag. Use a password you don’t use elsewhere.
Rule of thumb for any public WiFi: a sign-in page may ask you to accept terms, register an email or watch an ad. It should never ask for a card number for free access, your email password or a bank login.
Lookalike networks
LNER publishes LNER WIFI. LNER Free WiFi, LNER_Guest or Azuma WiFi are not on LNER’s page.
Copycat networks (“evil twins”) broadcast a trusted-looking name, sometimes with a stronger signal than the real one. CISA advises confirming the name of a public hotspot before you use it.
A 5-step check at LNER
- Join exactly
LNER WIFI, not a similar name. - Complete the sign-in page and look at its address before typing anything.
- Use apps and sites over HTTPS. If a site you know suddenly shows a certificate warning, stop.
- Keep banking and work logins for a network you have checked, or use mobile data.
- Turn off Auto-Join for this network when you leave, so your phone doesn’t silently rejoin a lookalike later.
