Personalising your HIPSY
1.
Connect to the HIPSY's access point
(see 'Connecting your HIPSY' overleaf)
.
2.
Open up your web browser and go to
http://www.hipsy.home
to access the
HIPSY management dashboard.
3.
Select the SSID option in the menu bar
(see figure 1)
.
4.
Enter the new SSID name and Password
into the boxes provided and click ‘Next’.
5.
The HIPSY will reconfigure itself with the
new details, and will
disconnect the
existing Wi-Fi connection
from your
laptop or tablet.
6.
Reconnect to the newly renamed HIPSY
access point, using the built in Wi-Fi
controls for your PC, laptop or tablet
(see figure 2)
.
We recommend changing the HIPSY's default access point settings to a personal SSID and
Password that is unique and memorable to you.
You can return at any time to the management dashboard to change these settings by following
the steps above.
Quick tip:
Save the management dashboard web address to your favourites bar.
Trouble Shooting Tips:
My HIPSY won’t power-up.
Check that the USB power connections are
clean, dry and fully seated, and that the
mains socket is switched on and working.
Consider trying a different mains powered
supply or socket.
Remember that the HIPSY takes a few
moments to power up and initialise before it
can start up its Wi-Fi access point.
The HIPSY SSID is not showing in the list
of available connections.
The HIPSY can take a few moments to
power up and initialise. Check that your
computer’s Wi-Fi is active and not set to
‘flight mode’. Check the Ethernet cable is
plugged into the HIPSY and router correctly.
After 90 seconds try refreshing the list of
available connections.
The HIPSY is failing to make a
connection to the Internet.
Check that your broadband connection is
working by connecting directly to your
router’s original Wi-Fi access point. If the
internet connection is down, contact your
ISP. Power-off and on again after 30
seconds, and try connecting a different
device to its Wi-Fi access point.
