To use ETU iPad configuration of pre-installed apps and settings, you don’t need a computer. The included USB cable and adapter can be used to charge the battery.
Connecting to Wireless
ETU iPads connect to the internet using WiFi only; they do not have 3G capabilities. To use internet services, you must be connected to a wireless network.
Open Settings from main screen, be sure Wi-Fi is switched to the ON position.
If you choose a secure network such as the UCLA wireless, you may need to log in using Safari before you can use internet services. If you are in range of the GSE&IS Wi-Fi, you will see the WiFi login screen when you launch Safari. If
you are on campus, use your Single Sign-on to log in.
