Network communication	Ethernet network interface card 10/100/1000 Mbps	Ethernet network interface card 10/100/1000 Mbps Follow these guidelines and recommendations: For optimal performance, use a wired connection for computers browsing to the Metasys UI. Alternatively, for mobile phones and tablets, you can use a wireless IEEE 802.11 connection on a 4G network. Browsing to the Metasys UI over a 3G communications network is possible, but it is not recommended or supported. High latency (also called lag or wait time) can cause the Metasys UI to disconnect from the ADS or ADX. To avoid high latency, use a network with 20 mpbs upload speed. Signal strength impacts the overall performance of the Metasys UI. For the best results, ensure you have a strong signal for your wireless connection.

Additionally, you may need to set your monitor display at Small 100% setting (Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Display).
