Now go back to the app and allow the connection pop ups then click next on the bottom of the app screen.
6. Fill Out WiFi Network Name and Password
Enter your home’s network name and password – they are case sensitive.
7. Enter and Wait
Click enter and wait – if the WiFi light turns solid green then you are paired – if it just blinks green or is red- you were unsuccessful.
8. Important
If you are making a second attempt at logging in or have changed your network or password – DO NOT ENTER YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS or it will think you are registering, but you are already registered and you can’t register twice!
If you are unsuccessful then either it is the wrong network name and password or you are pairing to a 5G network.
The Basement DefenderTM will only pair to 2.4GHz network.
If there is no internet connection, you might need a WiFi extender.
