Introduction

YoLink Hubs are the gateway to the internet for
your YoLink devices. As opposed to many smart
home systems, the individual devices are
not
on
your network or WiFI and are not directly
connected to the internet. Instead, your devices
communicate with the Hub, which connects to the
internet, the cloud server and the app.
Your SpeakerHub can only connect to the internet
via a 2.4 GHz band provided by your WiFi network
(5 GHz band is not supported at this time). Like most
IoT and home automation devices, your SpeakerHub
connects only to the 2.4 GHz WiFi band. Nearly all
residential WiFi routers have a 5
and
a 2.4 GHz
band. But your router may or may not display SSIDs
for
both
bands or they may both have the
same
name
. If you know which SSID is your 2.4 GHz band,
this is the one your Hub will connect to.
With some exceptions, your router and the
SpeakerHub will connect automatically via 2.4 GHz.
Some routers may attempt to connect your Hub to 5
GHz. Additional support may be needed, for
example, changing your router settings.
“5 GHz” should not be confused with “5G”
