Once you have connected the first wireless device to it, this device will be
automatically registered by the router, and the router will switch into Beacon
Eco mode (learning mode). When you disconnect your device from the router,
and no devices are connected to the router anymore, it will turn off the beacon
signal in standby, thereby reducing unnecessary emissions. The router will
only turn on its beacon signal for wireless devices that are on the registration
list. It will however still respond to connection requests from unregistered
devices.
1. When the router is in Beacon Eco mode, and you try to connect to it
with an unregistered device, it is possible that your wireless device
keeps displaying 'connecting to network'. There is an easy procedure to
resolve this. If ‘connecting to network’ keeps being displayed, cancel the
connection, and then reconnect. Alternatively you can first switch on the
wifi on the device (using e.g. the wifi slider on your phone), wait 5
seconds, then switch its wifi off and on again. Now you should be able
to connect.
You only need to do this the first time you connect, when the device is
not registered yet. Then the Eco 100 router automatically saves the
unique address of your device in the registration list and the next time
you connect, it should go smoothly.
2. Another way to connect an unregistered device to the Eco 100 router is
to first connect with a previously registered device, so that the router
goes out of standby mode. Then connect with the unregistered device.
3. You can also press the wifi button on the side of the router.
4. Finally, it is also possible to connect your device to the hidden network
jrs
or
jrs5.
You then need to enter the wifi network name manually. Use
security WPA2 and the same wifi password you set for the visible
networks. See the bold printed section below.
When the router is in Full Eco standby mode, on unregistered devices the wifi
network name will not be visible in the list of available networks. You can still
use methods 2-4 to connect however, and have the router register the new
device.
To allow newer devices (iPhones, iPads and newer Android devices) to
wake up the router from Full Eco stand-by, connect them to hidden Other
network ‘jrs’ with security WPA2 and the same wifi password you set for
the visible networks. See also earlier in this manual.
