Important Notes

  • StoreHub does NOT recommend mobile data as your main source of internet as your connection stability greatly depends on your telco coverage.

  • Only use a SIM card if you have no access to WiFi or LAN connections (Such as food trucks, market food stalls, or areas with poor wired internet coverage).

  • When using mobile data, you won't be able to connect to external printers via a LAN cable.

  • USB connection is possible but with limited cable lengths (shorter is better)

  • if you experience any slowdown in mobile data speed, please contact your service provider.
