5. Power up your Petcube Bites, wait 1 minute until it starts up, find a reset pin that
came with your Petcube Bites, find the small hole below the USB port on the left
side of the device, insert the reset pin into it, hold it down for 3 seconds until the
light changes to pulsing green and follow the steps on your screen.
If that doesn't help, below are a few other possible reasons this could be
happening:
a.
a. You are using W EP security on your router which is not supported by Petcube
due to security reasons. Petcube Bites works with newer WPA/W PA2 encryption
technology that aims to provide stronger wireless data encryption than WEP. We
recommend changing your security encryption to WPA/WPA2, which won't require
you to reconnect the devices back to the network or change your password. To
access your router settings, you may either call your ISP or look at the bottom of
your router, it usually has the login and password for the router settings or call

Petcube Customer Care for assistance at 1-888-447-2522 (toll-free within US and
Canada).
b. Your router may have some security settings such as a firewall or MAC address
filtering that don't allow Petcube Bites to connect to the Internet. Call your ISP or
reach out to Petcube Customer Care for assistance.
c. You have a WPS pin on your router, which works like a secondary Wi-Fi password
that is not supported by Petcube due to security reasons as it is considered to be a
vulnerability on the network. You may call your ISP or reach out to Petcube
Customer Care to resolve this issue.
