You can connect to the gateway via WiFi interface which the SSID and password are printed on the back label by default.

Figure 4 – Back Label

The rule of gateway SSID is MerryIoT_Femto_Lite-xxxxxx where the last digits are the last 6 digits of the MAC address

The PC will fetch the IP address of range 192.168.4.x except 192.168.4.1 assigned by the AP.

3.2 MerryIoT Hub Setting

Open the web browser(ex: Chrome) after connecting to the gateway via IP address “192.168.4.1”
