* wireless access point (WiFi hotspot); | |||
* “School Server” mesh network; | |||
* “simple” mesh network, which lets you collaborate directly with other XOs; | |||
* wired network (may require an external adapter—e.g., see [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/USB_ethernet_adaptors USB Ethernet adaptors]). | |||
You make your connection from the Neighborhood view. Your current connection status is shown on the Frame. | |||
