ACES Conference Rooms - Checking Wireless Connection

Very occasionally, the wireless connection on ACES conference room systems does not reconnect automatically on startup. When that happens, follow the quick steps below to reconnect.
1. If the wireless is not connected, the wifi icon will look greyed out with an asterisk
