TROUBLESHOOTING

WiFi or SIM setup failure
There are several factors that can affect the setup process. The followings are common issues:
WiFi frequency: The Device can only connect to 2.4GHz networks, channels 1-13.
WiFi password: Go through the device setup again and ensure that you have setthe correct WiFi password for the network.
WiFi security type: The Device supports OPEN, WEP, or WPA/WPA2 types.
WiFi channel width: Make sure it is set to 20MHz or “Auto”.
Internet connection: Make sure your device’s WiFi router has a working Internet connection (for instance, try to access www.ubibot.com using a mobile connected to the same WiFi).
Low battery power: WiFi uses a lot of power. Your device may be able to power on but may not have enough power for the WiFi. Please charge the device.
Make sure the SIM card is installed correctly and have a good mobile signal.
Please make sure the device has entered WiFi setup mode.
For direct problem diagnosis, please use the PC Offline Tools to go through the setup process and contact us with the response error code in Tools – Get Device Last Error. This can help us to remotely diagnose.
Failure to setup via Ethernet cable:
Please check if the Ethernet cable is plugged correctly.
Please check if the Ethernet cable is in good condition.
Please check if the Ethernet cable has access to the Internet.
Please check if the batteries are too flat to setup.
please check if the Ethernet switch is 100mbps or lower.
If all the above conditions are excluded, but you still can not active the device, please check whether the network rejects DHCP(automatic IP allocation); Or, you can also try to re-plug the Ethernet cable and go through the setup process again.
Failure to Sync Data. Please check the following:
With the device switched on, press the power button once to trigger a manual data sync. You can hear “sync completed” after the data being transferred. If it says “sync failed”, try the next steps.
Check that the device has sufficient battery power for data sync. Data synchronisation consumes a lot of power – the device may be on, but unable to sync data. Please check the battery icon on the screen. Charge the device before it runs out of the power.
Make sure your device’s WiFi router has a working Internet connection (for instance, try to access www.ubibot.com using a mobile connected to the same WiFi).
If you are using mobile data, check that your SIM card is activated. Check if your mobile data allowance is used up. And, check if the Ethernet cable is firmly connected.
