How Do I Change My Wi-fi Network Or Password?
When attempting to change your wifi network name or password that the feeder is connected to the first is to confirm that the SSID (wifi network name) your phone is on is the 2.4GHz network and not the 5GHz network. The SmartFeeder will only connect to the 2.4Ghz and the other troubleshoots are very simple and easy to do. If you are not aware of your 2.4GHz please contact your internet service provider and they will help you create or locate your 2.4.Ghz network.
