The terminal uses long-range cellular communication (4G or 3G) to send and receive information to and from the Moneris host. The terminal communicates via 4G by default for faster communication rates, and uses 3G as a fallback where 4G is not available. If you set up a Wi-Fi network, the terminal will switch to Wi-Fi when the Wi-Fi signal is stronger.
The network indicator appears in the status bar at the top of the screen.
