10” eTouch™

 User Guide to Android™ 

Please Note: 

Turning the Wi-Fi off when you‟re not using it will help you 

to maximise the battery life.  

 

Wi-Fi Connection Troubleshooting 

If you have trouble connecting to your Wi-Fi please check the following: 

 

Check you have entered your password correctly by trying to 
connect once more. 

 

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 conflict 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 eTouch 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. 
 

Please Note:

 The eTouch is not compatible with Adobe® Flash™. This 

will mean that some embedded video in webpages, or animated 
websites may not display correctly. Elonex strongly recommends 
checking the eTouch support webpages at 

www.elonex.com/support

 

for the latest developments, updated firmware and troubleshooting 
tips.
