(ISPs) via external modem.
Do NOT enter connection parameters in the Connections Manager if:
• You are using one of the on-board wireless radios to connect to a network.
The Dolphin terminal uses the settings from each radio’s configuration utility to connect.
• You are using Wireless Zero Config. By default, WZC is disabled on Dolphin terminals.
