Operating Instructions

Before you begin
In this procedure, the hub will enter “temporary access point mode”. In this mode, you can connect your
mobile device directly to the hub using Wi-Fi®, and then use your mobile device to change the hub’s
Wi-Fi settings so that the hub can connect to your wireless router.
Confirm the following before you begin.
– Make sure you have installed the [Home Network] app on your mobile device
– Make sure your wireless router and the hub are turned on and the hub’s LED indicator is lit in yellow
– Make sure the hub is located within range of your wireless router
– Make sure your mobile device is connected to your wireless router
– Make sure your mobile device can connect to the Internet
– Make sure you know the network name (SSID) and password assigned to your wireless router
Note:
R The hub only supports the 2.4 GHz wireless band. Before performing the initial setup, make sure your
mobile device is connected to the wireless router using the SSID that is assigned to the 2.4 GHz band
of your wireless router. When prompted to enter your wireless router’s password, enter the password
that is assigned to the 2.4 GHz band.
