Connecting to Your Jetpack
Now you can connect your Wi-Fi enabled device to your Jetpack using Wi-Fi. Your computer, tablet,
or other Wi-Fi enabled devices need Wi-Fi capability and Internet browser software. Your Jetpack
is compatible with all major operating systems, and works with the latest version of browsers,
including Android™, Chrome™, Firefox®, Internet Explorer®, Safari™ and Mobile Safari™. Your default
Wi-Fi Name (SSID) and Wi-Fi Password can be found on the Jetpack display upon initial power up.
To access your Wi-Fi Name (SSID) and Wi-Fi Password after the initial power up or a device reset:
Power on your Jetpack.
Select
Menu
and open the Wi-Fi Name and Password option.
Select
Open
to display the Wi-Fi Name/Password.
To connect to your Jetpack:
Turn on your Wi-Fi enabled device and turn on your Jetpack using the power button. The
Jetpack display will light up. The Jetpack broadcasts its own wireless network and name.
Open the Wi-Fi application or controls on the computer or Wi-Fi enabled device that you
want to connect to your Jetpack and find the Wi-Fi name (SSID).
Tip!
The steps to connect to a Wi-Fi network vary depending on your operating system and whether
you use the native application or third-party software. Generally, you click an icon in the Windows
notification area where you can select
View Available Wireless Networks,
or click the Airport
icon in the menu bar on a Mac. If you are unfamiliar with wireless networking on your computer,
consult the computer help system.
When prompted, enter your Wi-Fi password, which can be found on the Jetpack display
by pressing the Select button (Menu) on the Home screen to display the Wi-Fi icon, then
