To connect to WiFi or switch networks, go to settings. To open settings, swipe right from the left edge of your card reader screen.

Then, select "Network" -> "WiFi Settings" to choose the network, enter your password, and connect.

Once connected, you'll want to activate your card reader (Article).

Note: Attempting to join a new network disconnects the reader from any existing wireless connection.

Your WiFi network must use WPA-Personal or WPA2-Personal encryption and be password protected. Your card reader does not support non-password-protected networks, enterprise networks, or IPV6 networks. You can follow the troubleshooting steps to diagnose issues with IPV6 networks. If needed, you can set a static IP on the device from the Wireless settings screen.

In-person payments require an active WiFi connection
