FAQs

Can I limit the amount of time my kids have access to the internet?

Yes of course, this can be setup in parental controls. Make sure your kids devices are connected to the Wifi, then create a ‘Kids Group’ under the parental control section of your app. Once you’ve added their devices to the group you can schedule the days & times when the device can connect to the internet.

Will I get security firmware updates?

Yes, the app should let you know when to update the firmware. You can check if there’s a new version able to upgrade to under setting > firmware upgrade > detect latest firmware.

What do I do if one node won’t connect to the others?

The maximum suggested distance between two nodes is two walls, try moving it closer and adjusting the angle. If this doesn’t work, power down & wait 2 full minutes then check again. If you’re still experiencing issues, you should hold the reset button for 20s, when the lights turn solid white you can release it. The lights will turn blinking blue, open the app and click ‘allow’ on the pop up asking to join the network.
