Configure device settings and information on this page:

   - **External WiFi**: Connect to router networks or external network devices.
4. **WiFi Dongle IP**: Monitor your dongle connection status when using WiFi Dongle.
5. **Pictures Directory**: Change pictures directory to external USB device or custom folder. **Reboot required after modifying the directory.**
