Instructions

  1. Power the Hub On - First, unbox and plug the ILR into a power source using the UBS and AC adapter included with the unit. (You may also use PoE to power the unit)

  2. Connect - Using your phone or computer, connect to the Hub's WiFi (GW-XXXXXXXXXXX), the password will be the Hub key.

  3. Login - Once connected via WiFi to the Hub, you will need to point your browser to: 'http://192.168.99.1/'

    1. Login to the Hub admin page.

      CODE
      username: admin
      password: {Hub Key}

  4. Setup and connect to WiFi - Now that you are logged in, you can click on "Network".

  5. You will see two sliders, both are off by default. To connect to your local WiFi network turn the "Repeater" slider to the "ON" position.

  7. Enter your WiFi password and select the correct mode (most common will be DHCP).

  8. Click "Connect", the Hub will reboot and when it comes back online you will be connected to your local WiFi.

 Finished

You are now, finished. If you see the LED bar "rotating" and not "flashing" for longer than 2 minutes then you may need to try your configuration again. Depending on your settings: to know you have connected you will see the LED's turn off or slowly transition from one color to another.

Troubleshooting

You may be prompted by your browser letting you know "Your connection is not private". This is because the Hub does not have an SSL Cert that your browser will recognize. Simply proceed to the login screen.
