the Internet. If they cannot, there is a connection problem not
associated with the device.

the device to it as described in Step 1 of this guide. Test if the
PC/Mac can access the internet using the device as its access
point to the wireless network.
If it can connect: The device is setup OK and there may be a
problem with your mailing machine or the Pitney Bowes online
services availability. Try again a little later. If the problem persists,
contact Pitney Bowes. (Contact details are given in a separate
document supplied with your mailing machine).

network. Reset the device as described in the previous section
and set it up again as described in Step 1 of this guide.
