Add extra WiFi networks

iOSAndroid

Your GOAT device can remember more than one WiFi network — handy for, say, a marina network plus a phone hotspot — so it roams between them automatically.

Steps

  1. Owner only. Open Settings → GOAT Device → Device Management → Manage WiFi Networks (shown when the device is in WiFi mode).
  2. Tap Add WiFi Network, pick a network from the scan, and enter its password (an optional static IP can be set too).
  3. Reorder the list to set priority — on Android use the up/down arrows, on iOS drag to reorder. The device prefers networks higher up the list.
  4. Remove any networks you no longer need with the trash icon. The currently-active network can't be removed.

Note: The device joins the highest-priority saved network that's in range, and falls back to the next one if that's unavailable ("Networks are tried in order when connectivity drops"). There's no fixed limit on how many you can save.
