- Connect your mobile phone or laptop to the WiFi Access Point created by the device - at this time is called OV Halte Display. There is no password needed to connect.
- Once connected to the OV Halte Display WiFi then go to your preferred browser and enter 'sms.com' as URL - actally you can enter any name you wish as URL - and then the device will return the WiFi Set Up page.
- Either enter directly the name and password for your local WiFi and click Save OR click on WiFi List to see a list of WiFi Access Points the device can detect, select the WiFi Access Point from the List and then enter the password and Save!
- The device will now reboot and will attempt to connect to your local WiFi with the credentials as supplied previously.
