Configuration with WPS PIN (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
If your router has WPS but no button, you can use the WPS PIN function to configure Wi-Fi. Often the WPS PIN will
be listed on a sticker on the underside of the router.
Enter this PIN into the app, then press the WPS PIN setup button in the app to start the transmission.
Configuration with a network name and password
For this, you need to know you Wi-Fi network name (sometimes called “SSID”) and password. If you did not set
these yourself, they may be listed on a sticker on the router.
In the app, the Wi-Fi network name your iOS/Android device is connected to is already filled in; you can tap in the
network name field to change this if needed.
The Wi-Fi password cannot be automatically extracted by the app so you must enter this yourself. This password
can be saved within the Electric Imp app in order to make setup of subsequent devices easier.
Note that your Wi-Fi password can be in different forms: if you have a hex password (10 or 16 digits made up only
of the characters 0-9 and A-F), enter this without spaces or punctuation. Note also that passwords are case-
sensitive, so ensure you type these correctly - there is a “show typing” button which you can use to check you
typed the password correctly.
After these details are entered, press the Wi-Fi setup button in the app to start the transmission.
