NOTE:
Winegard recommends using Chrome or Firefox for set-up.
NOTE:
Some networks will display a “splash page” when connecting instead of using
a network password. When connecting to a network requiring a splash screen for
multiple days, it may be necessary to clear your browser cache.
WARNING:
CONNECTING TO THE INTERNET THROUGH 4G LTE WILL USE DATA
FROM YOUR WINEGARD CONNECT DATA PLAN.
WARNING:

INTERNET SOURCE.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT LOSE THIS MANUAL. It contains your unique factory default
SSID and password.
NOTE:
Any changes made to your network settings may result in a temporary loss
of all network connections for up to 1 minute while being applied. This includes
switching from WiFi to 4G and from 4G to WiFi. During this temporary loss your
device may switch to a local remembered WiFi network. This will not allow you
to return to the ConnecT setup screens. If this happens manually reconnect to the
ConnecT’s SSID again from your device.
