Connecting the Thermostat to the Internet

There are two methods to get the Thermostat connected to your Router. WPS and Access Point.

WPS



WPS is the easiest way of connecting your thermostat to the internet and almost all routers have this function available, if you do not have your WPS button activated or you wish to connect to a booster or extender then please proceed to Access Point Mode.

If you are having trouble connecting via WPS mode, then please skip straight to Access Point Mode.

**Important** If you are a Virgin Media Business customer, and you have a Hitron Router, then WPS will be disabled. Please follow this guide to enable WPS on your router - Hitron WPS Guide.
