How to connect the Interactive Light Projector to WiFi

  1. Try to set up the projector in an area with good WiFi signal, such as near your router. When the projector is switched on, navigate to “Settings”, then select “Networks”.
  2. If the projector is not yet connected, from “Available networks“, select the network you wish to join.
  3. Enter your WiFi password using the remote. Navigate to the ‘Enter’ icon and press OK.
  4. If you have successfully connected to WiFi, you will see a message saying, “Connected” and a green circle will appear in the top left corner of your menu. This may take a short amount of time.
  5. If the green circle doesn’t appear in the left corner, go back to the “Settings” menu by pressing the back button. Navigate to “Restart” and press OK. Once the unit has restarted, navigate back to “Networks” and see if you are now connected.
  6. After following these steps, if you’re still unable to connect to the WiFi we suggest re-checking that you’re using the correct password. You can try to connect a mobile phone to the same network to see if it connects. You could also try using an alternative network, if one is available. Hotspotting through your mobile phone could also work, so please try this too. 
 

If after all these steps you’re still having problems, please notify your IT support team, who may be able to find an alternative network to use, or whitelist projector. We will be able to provide a MAC address for your specific projector- please reach out to our team if you require this.

If you still can’t connect to WiFi, please contact us for further help.
