• Click “Advanced“ then click “Proceed to (unsafe)”.

Initial Device Setup

• The following prompt will pop up. For security  reasons it is recommended to click the blue text  saying, “Click here”. This will ensure passwords are not visible on the network.

If you followed the security recommendations a popup from Chrome will give a warning saying, “Your Connection is not private”. The warning means the browser does not know who the server is but the connection is actually secure.
Click “Advanced”, then click “Proceed to (unsafe)”.
