ACCESS POINT AND WIFI NETWORK SETTINGS
Once you turn on the controller for the rst time, you can proceed to its
further conguration. Being connected to the WiFi network emitted by the
device, in the control panel of the wBox application select the device, then go
to “Settings” (icon at the top-right corner of the screen).
You can change the name of the device that is displayed in the wBox
application. In addition, you can change the name and password of its
generated WiFi network. Remember that changing the network name or
password will disconnect the device immediately after you click the "Save"
button, so re-connect to the device using the newly assigned network name
and password.
You can add the controller to your home WiFi network to control it through
this home network or from anywhere in the World. To do this, in the "Connect"
settings section, select a network name from the list and press "Connect". If is
required, enter the WiFi network password. During the connection of the
controller to your home network, the phone / tablet may disconnected from
the network. In this case, you will need to reconnect your phone / tablet to the
controller network.
Please remember that in order to control the device outside the local WiFi
network, from anyplace in the World by using the wBox application, the
option "Remote access enabled" in the controller settings must be set to "Yes".
Once you've nished conguring the WiFi network, you can disconnect your
phone/tablet from the controller network and connect your mobile device
directly to your home WiFi network. The control from the wBox application
will work the same way as when the phone / tablet is connected to the
controller network. If the user leaves the local network, for example, leaving
home or using the mobile data, the wBox application will signal this state as
"Remote mode". In this case, the devices can be controlled, but for security
reasons settings are not available.
