Create a new LabQuest Network (Ad-Hoc Network)
If you do not have access to an existing Wi-Fi network, or are not permitted to access your
school's network, you can quickly and easily set up a network with LabQuest 2.
TIP!
Students can connect to a LabQuest Network with their mobile devices. This network will
not support access to the Internet. The email function of LabQuest will not work with a LabQuest
ad-hoc network.

Select Create Network.
TIP!
If you are in an area with several Wi-Fi
networks, you may need to scroll to the bottom of
the network list to locate “Create Network.”
b.
Tap the Network Name field and assign a name
to this new network (e.g., Ms. Johnsons
classroom). Then, tap Create.
TIP!
Protect your network by assigning a
password that you will provide only to your
students. Select the check box and assign a
password to your new network (e.g., 1frog,
scienceisfun!). The Passphrase must meet certain
criteria. See our website for more information:
