Installing and setting up Wunda Smart System

Changing to a new router / reconnecting your HubSwitch to your 2.4GHz WiFi

Follow these steps to reconnect your HubSwitch to your 2.4GHz WiFi if you have a new router, or your WiFi SSID or password have changed.

Option 1 - via your router’s WPS button (If your router has one, some routers have software WPS button, please refer to your router instructions)

Press the WPS button on your internet router to enable WPS pairing (You may want to check your router instructions on how to do this for your specific router).
Now you have around 3 minutes to go to your HubSwitch and hold the Setup button (for approximately 6 seconds) until it flashes pink this signifies WPS pairing has been enabled on the HubSwitch.
Within 2 minutes your router and HubSwitch should reconnect, the HubSwitch setup light will turn solid green confirming a successful connection to your new router and the internet.

Option 2 – via the Wunda Home app

Please follow these steps if option 1 was unsuccessful or your router does not support WPS pairing. You will need to go into the Wunda Home app, from the System Devices page, select and hold on the system you wish to re-connect and then select WiFi Setup, you can then follow the onscreen instructions to connect the HubSwitch to your new network.

Option 3 – Renaming the SSID on your new router

When setting up a new router, it is commonly advised to set a custom network name (SSID) and password and not use the routers default credentials. With that in mind, you may want to consider setting up your new router using the same SSID and password as your old router. This way you only need to set it once on the router, and all of the devices previously connected to your old router will connect to the new network using the same SSID and password they were originally set up with. Saving a lot of time in updating all of the network connected devices in your house up with the new details.
Reusing your old network name and password can certainly help speed up the process of setting up a new router but that doesn’t mean you should always go this route. Sometimes a new SSID and password really are needed.
For instance, if you kept the preset SSID like "SKYXXXXX," "Linksys," "NETGEAR" etc. on your old router, you’re going to want a unique network name instead. It needs to be easy to remember but you don’t want to include your name, address or any other personal information.
Likewise, if you’re upgrading from a much older router that uses WEP instead of WPA or WPA2, you may want to change your network name and password. Since WEP is an outdated security protocol that encrypts passwords differently, even if you use the same password, your devices won’t connect automatically.

Finally, setting up your new router with a different network name and password is a great idea if you want to prevent people who have your old network credentials from connecting to your network, in this case, starting fresh with a new network name and password is the best course of action.
