[Connectivity] All about Elhi and WiFi compatibility

How do I know if I have a 2.4 GHz Wifi Connection? It's very easy to check if you have a 2.4 GHz Wifi Connection. Open up your WiFi menu on your computer and see if there are multiple options (SSID) with your WiFi's name. See if there are multiple similar network names (SSID), for example: "elhi_wifi" and "elhi_wifi_5G" "elhi_wifi" and "elhi_wifi 5.0" "elhi_wifi" and "elhi_wifi5" "elhi_wifi 2G" and "elhi_wifi" If there are multiple similar networks, the one with either 2G, 2GHz, or nothing extra in the name is most likely the 2.4GHz WiFi network. We would recommend you to connect to the Wifi and check through your computer settings. If you are using a Mac follow the below steps: Click on the WiFi icon in the top navbar while holding down the Option/Alt key. You will see detailed information in grey about your Wi-Fi.

[Windows] Activating Advance IP Scanning to Resolve Connectivity Issues

Image
Elhi uses mDNS discovery for finding the Elhi device on the network. In certain Network configurations, mDNS discovery can give issues. In these cases, you can use the Advance IP Scanning feature, which gives a higher resolution probability. To use the Advance IP Scanning, follow the steps below attempting to connect your Elhi device: Right-click on the Elhi Icon placed in the System Tray. Open Preferences and go to the System Tab. Check the "Advance IP Scan" option as shown below. Though Advance IP Scanning improves connectivity, it can take more time to establish connectivity (at least for the first time). It works only when one Elhi device is connected to the network. Some Network configurations might prevent Advance IP Scanning from not functioning as intended. Please contact ElhiTech support in case you need help.
