Wired and/or WiFi?
Your Hub must be connected to the Internet via WiFi
and/or a wired connection. For easy plug & play
installation with no need to change phone or Hub
settings, now or later, a wired connection, only, is
recommended. A wired connection may be best for
you, if any of these apply to you:
You'd rather not share your WiFi password with additional apps or
systems
You'd rather not have to update the app settings if you ever change
your WiFi password or make changes to the network equipment or internet
service provider
You have only a hot spot and/or do not have a permanently-installed
WiFi (no hot spots!)
Your WiFi has a second verification process or additional security
You forgot or do not have your password
Your WiFi is not dependable
