Steps:
- Plug the J-ReX into the vehicle’s OBD-II port.
- On the hotspot-capable device, enable the mobile hotspot feature and then put the device away (it won’t be needed further).
- Find the connector number on the back of the J-ReX (e.g.,
XXXXX). - On your internet device, search for available WiFi networks.
Note: Disable mobile data if you are using a phone. - Look for a network named
Connector[XXXXX].- If not visible, go to the Resetting J-ReX section below.
- Connect to the J-ReX network (ignore “no internet” warnings).
- Open a browser on the same device and navigate to: connector.help
- Under Available networks, select the mobile hotspot network you want to use.
- Enter the hotspot password if applicable, then press Connect.
- Wait while a loading circle appears.
- Observe the green and orange LEDs near the Ethernet port on the J-ReX. When both LEDs remain steadily lit, the connection to the mobile hotspot is successful.
