Description: This article covers the setup of A800 devices. These settings are crucial for the VenueNext app to operate as intended.
Connecting to your Wi-Fi or cellular network
- On the settings page, select Network & internet.
- Note: You may be prompted to enter a password to enter Android Settings. If so, the default password is pax9876@@.
- Here you will have two options to connect to a network:
- To connect to Wi-Fi, turn on Wi-Fi and connect to a secure network.
- To connect to a cellular network, select mobile network.
- We recommend using Wi-Fi if there is a secure network available for the POS. If cellular is turned on, it is a billable feature.
Android settings
