and you can drag and drop, or copy and paste les
to and from the eTouch’s folder.
Wi-Fi Connection
Troubleshooting
If you have trouble connecting to
your Wi-Fi please check the
following:
:: Check you have included any
CaPiTaL letters as most passwords
are case sensitive
:: Check you haven’t got CAPS lock
toggled ON.
:: Check you have the correct
password for the hotspot and it
hasn’t been changed.
If you still can’t connect there may
be a temporary conict with your
router’s security authentication.
Please contact your Internet Service
Provider, requesting to temporarily
lower the router’s security
encryption to WEP which will allow
the Tablet to connect to the
internet.
Once connected, you should have
no further problems with getting
online you can request that the ISP
return the encryption to its former
status. This can all be done over the
phone in a couple of minutes.
