    New Mevo+ owner. Some quick start up questions

    I think I got extremely lucky since I ordered my Mevo+ from Par2Pro last Thursday and I already received it today.

    Anyway. I had another thread on the PC connection but now I have a few other questions.
    1. When I'm connected to the FS Golf App with my phone using the Wifi, Is there a way to still get internet connection using my phones' data plan?
    2. I'm waiting for my TGC2019 license to be transferred over to my Mevo+, but is there a way to test that my putting setup works before I transfer the license from my ST to the Mevo+?
    3. I noticed that my Mevo+ went to sleep fairly quickly in the FS Golf App and I needed to re-enable the radar to start reading some shots again, is there a spot in the app to change how long it waits before going to sleep?

    Thanks everyone!

    Disregard #3 - I found the setting to change how long it takes before it will go to sleep in the FS Golf App!

      On #1, you have to get a separate wifi adapter. Costs like $20 and plugs into USB. Super simple.

      So on my phone, since I can't add another adapter, my phone would lost it's internet connection while I am using the Mevo+

    When you connect the Mevo+ to your phone via the Mevo+'s wifi, you phone should automatically switch over to your carrier's data connection for Internet access (signal strength dependent for speed).

      Interesting. I don't think my phone is doing that. Since I'm not getting any whatsapp messages when I'm connected with my phone

          I came across a forum where folks who use a dashcam have a similar issue where the dashcam connects via WiFi and they're having similar problem that the phone is not rerouting traffic via cellular. Check the Mevo+ WiFi settings for IP address and Subnet in your phone's WiFi connections. If its an iPhone click the info icon beside the WiFi connection that will show you a screen with options like Auto-Join, Wi-Fi Address, Configure IP, etc. Click on Configure IP then select Manual. Now you can input the IP address you saw in the previous screen with the Subnet Mask if its different that the default entry of 255.255.0.0. Your phone should now reroute all other traffic through your cell connection when WiFi is connected to Mevo+.
