A
Introduction
Thank you
for purchasing YoLink products! Whether you are
adding additional hubs to expand your system's range or if this is
your first YoLink system, we appreciate you trusting YoLink for
your smart home/home automation needs. Your 100% satisfaction
is our goal. If you experience any problems with your installation,
with our product or if you have any questions that this manual
does not answer, please contact us right away. See the Customer
Support section for more info.
The YoLink Hub is the central controller of your YoLink system
and the gateway to the Internet for your YoLink devices. As
opposed to many smart home systems, the individual devices
(sensors, switches, outlets, etc.) are not on your network or Wi-FI
and are not directly connected to the internet. Instead, your devices
communicate with the Hub, which connects to the internet, the
cloud server and the app.
The Hub connects to the internet via a wired and/or WiFi
connection to your network. As the wired method is "plug & play" we
recommend using this method, because it is the easiest to set-up
and it does not require making changes to settings for your phone
or network equipment (now, or in the future -- changing your WiFi
password later would require changing the password for the Hub).
The Hub may otherwise be connected to the internet via a 2.4GHz
(only*) band WiFi provided by your network. See the Support section
of this manual for more information. *5GHz band is not supported at
this time.
Your system may have more than one Hub, due to the number of
devices (one Hub can support at least 300 devices), and/or the
physical size of your home or building(s) and/or property. YoLink's
unique Semtech® LoRa®-based long-range/low-power system
offers industry-leading range - up to 1/4 mile reach in open air!
