Smartphone/Tablet connection
(continued)
Your WiFi Key is printed on an adhesive label, which is attached to the bottom of the Gateway.
We tried to ensure the keys are secure while still being somewhat memorable:
Once you
’
re connected via WiFi, the
WiFi Link
LED on the front of your device should turn
blue, and it
’
s time to launch your favorite Terminal Emulator application. In practice, any
application that supports Telnet and VT100 will work.
The examples below show
ConnectBot
for Android, which is freeware, and available on the
Play Store. We
’
ve also tested the device using
vSSH
for IOS (Iphones/Ipads) which costs
about ten aussie bucks.
We
’
ve tried reaching out to the creators of
vSSH
for help in writing a tutorial (potentially
netting them
tens of dollars
in app purchases), but we
’
ve yet to hear back from them.
When your App is launched for the first time, you may need to adjust a few settings to ensure
proper connection and display. Again, these examples are for
ConnectBot
, but should easily
port to
vSSH
and other apps.
Here is the start page of
ConnectBot
