use the USB-C connector on the front or back panel.

TIP Once you’ve finished streaming, we recommend you switch off tethering
connections to save your smartphone’s battery life.
If your Web Presenter had an Ethernet cable connected, you are advised to confirm it is
configured to use mobile internet tethering. Open the Web Presenter Setup utility and go to the
‘setup’ tab. In the ‘network’ section, set the connection priority to ‘mobile’.
