Touchscreen Features and Display

Allow from Touchscreen:

Setting Changes: When checked, settings can be configured on the MiFi touchscreen.

NOTE: This includes the ability to initiate Factory Reset, which resets all settings to factory default settings and disconnects all connected devices.

Wi-Fi Setting Changes: When checked Wi-Fi settings can be changed on the MiFi touchscreen.

Factory Reset: When checked, this allows factory reset from the MiFi touchscreen (Settings > Factory Reset). Factory reset resets all settings to factory default settings and disconnects all connected devices.

NOTE: If Setting Changes (above) is unchecked, Settings > Factory Reset is not available on the touchscreen, even when this box is checked.

Show on Touchscreen:

Admin Password: When checked, the password used to access the admin web UI is visible on the touchscreen by tapping Help > Admin Website or Menu > Settings > Advanced Settings.

USB Settings

Mode When Connected To Computer: Use the drop-down list to select the default type of connection you want for devices connecting to the MiFi USB port: USB charging, internet access via USB and Wi-Fi, or internet access via USB only.

NOTE: The MiFi also charges when connecting to access the internet.

Prompt on USB Connection: When checked, a prompt displays on the MiFi screen when a device connects via USB. The prompt allows selection of the USB mode of connection.

NOTE: A USB mode selection made on the MiFi touchscreen does not change the setting above. The setting above acts as a default, and the choice on the MiFi touchscreen sets the mode for the current USB session only.

Battery

Battery Preservation Mode: When checked, Battery Preservation Mode activates when your MiFi has charged for more than 16 hours straight. The battery level is allowed to fall to 70% and then your MiFi maintains a charge of 70% - 80% until you power cycle or remove it from charging.
