Richard, I too have found the internet and receiving emails is
painfully slow compared to the mPower.

Subject: RE: [Braillenote] question about the apex and internet
Joseph, Alex, or anyone with some technical knowledge,
I have seen messages from several of you since the release of the
Apex Braille
Note about the slow speeds of parsing web pages when compared to
the mPower
units. Have any of you found a work around to speeding this up?
I find using
the same favorites as I used on my Voice Note mPower are so slow
on my Apex as
to be worthless. These are not complex large pages for the most
part but my
mPower can load them in a few seconds but the Apex takes a
minimum of 45
seconds to a minute or two in some cases using my broad band
service through
the ethernet port. I can not test it with wi-fi because my
router is configured
for WPA-2, which I don't believe the Apex can handle. Once a
page is loaded, it
can take just as long again to reload after I press on a link
that pulls up
another page and so on. If there is no work around, I sure hope
Humanware gets
it in gear to fix this issue soon. I still use my mPower much
more frequently
than my Apex due to this problem, as well as some other issues I
have already
reported to Humanware.

Hi,
That's almost right. Yes, it would work with anywhere there is
Internet
coverage. However, your friend needs to set up so-called
Connection
Configuration to use a particular connection method e.g.
Ethernet, Wi-Fi,
etc.
Cheers,
Joseph
