# Can I configure settings for an offline device?

Yes, you can update configurations such as time zone and orientation for devices that are offline, but they will not be set on the device until it comes online to receive the configuration. This is distinct from commands such as reboot, which will never be received if a device is offline at the time it is sent.

> If you are configuring WiFi for a device you want to ship to another location, it is important that you bring the device online for it to receive the configuration before shipping it or it will not have the credentials saved locally on the device and will not connect automatically.
