Note: For the most reliable connection, we strongly recommend using a wired PoE+ network connection.
If a wired connection is not available and you need to use Wi-Fi, disable the following Android Wi-Fi settings (if available):
- Avoid poor network connections
- Notify whenever a public network is available
Disabling these options helps prevent the device from switching networks or disconnecting during Wi-Fi maintenance or temporary network fluctuations, improving the overall reliability of the GoBright App.
You can find these settings by navigating to Android Settings → Wi-Fi → Advanced.
To access the Android settings, you must first exit the GoBright App. For instructions, see the article Close the GoBright App on a display.
Note: These settings are not available on all Android versions. If you cannot find them, they are not supported on your device.
