How do I connect my tolino eReader to the Internet?

You can connect your tolino eReader to the Internet free of charge using a wireless network (WLAN) or one of the many hotspots operated by Deutsche Telekom AG.

Connecting via WLAN: Select “Settings” in the main menu and then go to “WLAN and flight mode” to connect your tolino eReader to a wireless network. If the WLAN function is turned off, please activate it by tapping “WLAN.” If the WLAN is turned on, your tolino eReader will recognize all wireless networks available in your area. Now tap your preferred network to select it. If the network is password-protected, a dialog window will appear. Enter a valid password here. After you confirm your entry by tapping “Connect,” your tolino eReader will connect to the Internet via WLAN.

Connecting via a hotspot: If you do not have a separate WLAN available, you can use any of the many hotspots operated by Deutsche Telekom AG to connect free of charge using your tolino eReader in Germany. A hotspot is a form of Internet access available at many public locations (including airports, some ICE trains operated by Deutsche Bahn, and designated public phone booths). For an overview of available Deutsche Telekom hotspots, please click here. Your device will connect automatically as soon as it is near a hotspot when the WLAN is turned on.

Please note that to use the Deutsche Telekom hotspots free of charge, you need to be registered with a tolino bookseller and logged in. If you are not registered with a tolino bookseller and logged in and simply wish to use your tolino eReader to surf the Internet, you may begin accruing charges for WLAN use as soon as you enter information such as your name, address, credit card or bank details.
