Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS)

How can you tell if the WiFi Smart Socket is successfully paired with my router?| If you are successfully paired, the light on the WiFi Smart Socket will stay lit
What if I change or update my router?| You will need to reconfigure your WiFi Smart Socket to work with your new router.
From what distance can I control the WiFi Smart Socket?| You can control your WiFi Smart Socket from any location in the world as long as your iOS/Android device can access the internet through WiFi or a 3G/4G network
Why has my WiFi Smart Socket turned off unexpectedly?| Your WiFi network may have turned off. Please check and restart your wireless router, then power on the WiFi Smart Socket
What appliances are suitable to use with the WiFi Smart Socket?| The WiFi Smart Socket will work with any home appliance that currently plugs into a Smart Socket and draws under 3000W power. The WiFi Smart Socket is best suited to appliances that do not contain internal on/off switching, or which can be switched to an always-on state. For example, a traditional lamp will be well suited to the WiFi Smart Socket, but a touch-lamp that resets to the off position when the power is cut, would not be a good choice for the WiFi Smart Socket.
I can’t connect to my WiFi Smart Socket from outside of my home WiFi network| You will need to enable port forwarding to access the WiFi Smart Socket from outside of your home. As every router is different, please refer to your router/modem instruction manual for detailed information or contact the manufacturer regarding port forwarding. You should still be able to use the Wi-Fi Smart Socket within your home Wi-Fi network without port forwarding.
Can I control multiple WiFi Smart Sockets?| Yes, you can add up to 150 Smart Sockets to your home network.
Note: The number of devices that can be connected to your home network depends on your router/modem. Refer to manufacturer instructions for more information.
Can others within my home network control my WiFi Smart Socket?| Yes they can.
---|---
What can I use the countdown function for?| This will leave appliances on for a time that you set. It can be used as a timer to turn off appliances you only want for a period of time. For example, set your phone charger to turn off after 3 hours to stop the power draw after your phone has charged.
Why is the light on the front of my WiFi Smart Socket flashing red?| If the light is slowly flashing red, the device cannot connect to your network. If the light is flashing quickly, the unit is in pairing mode.
See steps on how to connect the WiFi Smart Socket to your network.
How do I reset the WiFi Smart Socket?| Connect the WiFi Smart Socket to a power source and hold down the power button for 5 seconds to reset the unit.
