  • Green - your device is starting up. It takes roughly a minute to fully turn on.
  • Blue or aqua - your Smart WiFi is all connected. Good WiFi or an ethernet connection.
  • Orange - Smart WiFi Plus is working okay. Try moving it closer to the hub or one of the other Smart WiFi Plus devices.
  • Red - There’s a problem. Turn your Smart Hub and Smart WiFi Plus device off and on again. If the light still doesn’t turn aqua, press the Smart WiFi device’s ‘factory reset’ button with a paper clip or pen.
  • Flashing orange - your Smart WiFi is not connected to your Smart Hub. Connect using WPS or ethernet cable.
  • Flashing blue - the Smart WiFi Plus device is connecting. WPS is on and connecting to your hub or device. This could take a couple of minutes.
