Connections Manager

Microsoft’s Connections Manager sets up multiple network connections to Internet Service Providers (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.
