the PDMS is also available using a browser on any Internet-connected computer. The tablet ships with
Wi-Fi enabled, so it can detect available Wi-Fi networks out of the box.
Note: If you attempt to connect to a Wi-Fi network that requires you to go to an Internet website to
log in, as in some hotels and coffee shops, you will not be able to log in because the tablet does

necessary and the tablet will connect to mobile broadband automatically if a signal is available.
