  5. On the secondary screen, click Continue again.



  6. On the third screen, tap the option 'Select a network…' and then locate and select your WiFi network from the drop-down menu options.

Dentli Player WiFi Compatibility

WiFi Network Security Mode Prerequisite

  • If you operate a Commercial/Standard WiFi network, please use the WPA/WPA2 security option.

  • If you operate an Enterprise WiFi network, please use the EAP security option.
