18. What does the Maxview Roam Combo App do?
The Maxview Roam Combo App is available free of charge to all customers who have purchased a Maxview
Roam Combo. It is available to download from the Android Google Play and Apple App Stores.
The Roam Combo App is designed to simplify some of the key functions of the Maxview Roam Combo
including set up, changing the Roam Combo hotspot Wi-Fi name/password as well as switching between 3G/4G
and Wi-Fi source. With the Roam Combo App, it is no longer necessary to access the router settings through the
web browser.
19. What is a Captive Portal?
A Captive Portal is the term used when a public Wi-Fi
source redirects the user to a webpage before they
can gain access to the internet.
This page usually requires the user to input details
such as an email address and accept terms of use.
Wi-Fi sources requiring use of a Captive Portal
are not supported by the Maxview Roam Combo and
therefore cannot be used as an Wi-Fi source.
In this instance we suggest you continue to use the
3G/4G connection or connect directly to the Wi-Fi
connection with your Wi-Fi enabled device.
Example of a typical captive portal login.
20. What is WAN Failover?
Once WIFI has been activated as the internet source, the Roam Combo uses WAN failover as default. This
feature is designed to overcome the need to manually switch the internet source between mobile and Wi-Fi.
When a Wi-Fi connection has been set up, the Roam Combo router will prioritise this as the source of internet
and only use the mobile connection when the Wi-Fi is no longer available.
