# Test Network Connection

### Test Network Connection

The Secure Payment application's payment module works with counter-top and mobile payment terminals. Many counter-top terminals use a wired (Ethernet) network connection but many also use a wireless (Wi-Fi) as a backup connection. Mobile terminals will connect to Wi-Fi and/or mobile (cellular) networks.

If the terminal is taking longer than expected to process transactions, you may want to check the terminal's network connection to ensure that everything is working correctly.

#### **To test your network connection:**

1. From the main screen, touch **Network**.

2. The *Connection test* screen appears and displays the results of the connection test.
3. If the *Connection Test* screen displays a **Failure** message, touch the **Continue** button and check the terminal's Wi-Fi settings as well as your router and then repeat the network connection test.
