If you're having trouble registering your Rest+ don't worry, we're here to help! To start, check the settings on your Wi-Fi router or access point
-
- Incompatible settings on your home Wi-Fi router or access point can stop you from registering or updating the Wi-Fi on the Hatch Rest app. Make sure that Wifi is available at 2.4GHz on your network (Rest+ does not support 5GHz-only connections).
- Rest+ does not support network names or passwords that contain the special characters /, \, or ". If your network name or password includes one of those characters, you will need to connect to a different network or change your Wi-Fi name or password to remove the unsupported character.
Here are a few more tips that may help!
- Keep your device as close to your router as possible during the registration process.
- Double-check your WiFi password and make sure it is correct! Be sure you're manually typing the password in and not copying and pasting it from another source.
- Check and see if you are trying to connect to a Captive Portal Network. They are typically found at hotels, universities, and even some apartments. They will require you to enter in the MAC address of the device before connecting. They are unfortunately not compatible with our devices.
