Wifi Connection - Magellan MobileMapper CX Getting Started Manual

WiFi Connection

IMPORTANT! Only model 5421A from U.S.Robotics can be
used with MobileMapper CX. The driver of this adapter being
pre-installed, no installation phase is needed (the device is
fully plug-and-play). You will however find an Installation
Guide in the box but remember you don't need to go through
any of the procedures described in this Guide.
Always plug in the adapter into the I/O module's USB host port
before turning on MobileMapper CX.
- After plugging in the adapter, turn on the MobileMapper
CX. The WiFi driver window appears automatically at the
end of the boot sequence.
- Let the driver detect the WiFi access points available
nearby. The list of available WiFi networks is displayed in
the middle of the screen.
- Move the cursor vertically to highlight the WiFi network
you wish to use.
- Tap Connect. The unit will then respond according to the
type of WiFi provider you have selected:
• For some providers such as Orange, the unit will
immediately try to connect to the selected WiFi net-
work. At the end of this phase, the WiFi status shown
at the bottom of the screen should read "Connected
to..." combined with a correct signal strength (Good,
Very Good or Excellent) reported just underneath. Tap
OK to close the connection window.
The first time you run Internet Explorer, you will be
prompted to open the WiFi access provider home page
to choose your internet provider name and personal
identification (username and password). After making
these choices, you will have full access to the Internet.
