How do I connect to Wi-Fi?Updated 3 months ago
First, you will need access to a keyboard. This will require opening the control panel, instructions for that process can be found here: https://polycade.com/pages/helphq-2#/collection/2975/article/13006
Many Polycade machines ship with a USB keyboard inside, if you find that your machine does not have one you will need to locate one and plug it in.
Depending on how up-to-date your version of Polycade AGS is, you may be able to log into Wi-Fi entirely through our software. To do this, follow these steps:
- From your home screen, press the Esc key
- Move down to "Network"
- Select "Open WiFi Settings"
- Click "Show available networks"
- Your machine's network settings will open- find the Wi-Fi network you wish to use and select it
- If necessary, enter the password
- Close the Settings window
If you are unable to connect via AGS's built-in network settings for any reason, you can accomplish the same end via Windows with these steps:
- Press Control + Alt + Delete
- When you see the menu that has options for Lock, Switch User, Sign Out and Task manager, look in the bottom right corner for 3 icons
- Select the Globe icon, this should be the left most of the 3
- Your machine's network settings will open- find the Wi-Fi network you wish to use and select it
- If necessary, enter the password
- Once connected, click anywhere outside the network options to close the box
- Select "Cancel" to return to your previous screen
You should only need to connect once but if you ever desire to change networks, simply follow the steps above and choose a different network option.
