Moneris® Go Plus: Using Your Terminal
8
Wireless communication: 4G and Wi-Fi
The Moneris Go Plus uses long-range cellular communication (4G or 3G) to send and receive information to and
from the Moneris host. The terminal communicates via 4G by default for faster communication and uses 3G as a
fallback where 4G is not available.
If you set up a Wi-Fi network, the terminal will switch to Wi-Fi when the Wi-Fi signal is stronger. To setup a Wi-Fi
network, refer to the Moneris® Go Plus
Setting up your terminal
guide.
