WI-FI SETUP IN DEPTH

There are different methods for setting up your Zygote

to against an existing Wi-Fi network. To enter Wi-Fi

setup mode, touch and hold the input selector button

for five seconds until the LED flashes in purple. When

the Zygote is connected in one way, it will exit the Wi-

Fi setup mode automatically. If the Zygote is unable

to connect, it will timeout after two minutes and leave

Wi-Fi setup mode.

Setting up the Zygote from WPS network key setting

For this alternative, the router needs to have a WPS

function. This function could be in the form of a

WPS button on the router or in the form of a function

activated from the routers web interface. If your

router does not have a WPS button, and you do not

know how to access your routers web interface, it is

highly recommended to use one of the other options.

Push the WPS button on your router. Your router will

normally remain in WPS mode for two minutes. Enter

the Wi-Fi setup mode. The Zygote is now in WPS

mode, and will remain in this mode for a maximum

of two minutes. Once both the Zygote and the router

is in WPS mode, they should connect automatically.

After having stored the Wi-Fi network settings the LED

will light for two seconds continuously in purple to

confirm the new settings are stored.

Sharing network settings from iOS over USB

For this alternative, you will need an iOS device

(iPhone, iPod or iPad) which is already connected

to your Wi-Fi network and a USB cable that is

compatible with your iOS device. Enter the Wi-Fi

setup mode. The Zygote is now in WPS mode. Once

the Zygote registers the connected iOS device, allow

it to share its Wi-Fi settings with the connected

accessory. Now the Zygote will receive its Wi-Fi

settings from your iOS device. The LED will light for

two seconds continuously in purple to confirm the

new settings are stored. The iOS device can now be

unplugged, and the Zygote should show up as a new

Airplay speaker on your iOS or OSX device.

Sharing network settings from iOS over Wi-Fi (WAC)

For this alternative, you will need an iOS device

(iPhone, iPod or iPad) which is connected to your

Wi-Fi network. Enter the Wi-Fi setup mode. The

Zygote is now in WPS mode. Touch the input selector

again, to enter WAC mode. On your iOS device, go

to "Settings" and "Wi-Fi". On the lower part of your

screen, select "Set up new Airplay speaker", and press

next. Your iOS device will now automatically share

its Wi-Fi settings with your Zygote. The LED will light

for two seconds in purple to confirm the new settings

are stored.

Setting up the Zygote as Wi-Fi direct

Wi-Fi direct is used if no access point is available that

the Zygote can be connected to. In Wi-Fi direct mode

the Zygote will configure itself as an access point.

Any smartphone or computer can access this from the

standard network settings. Enter the Wi-Fi setup mode.

The Zygote is now in WPS mode. Touch the LED once

to enter Wi-Fi direct mode. The LED will light for two

seconds continuously in purple to confirm that the

new settings are stored. The Zygote is now accessible

from any Wi-Fi enabled device. No network key is

required to access the Zygote in Wi-Fi direct mode.

Attention: When using the Zygote in Wi-Fi direct

mode, and you are connected to the Zygote, you will

normally not have access to Internet, as your device

will try to access Internet through your Zygote. To

access Internet, turn off the Wi-Fi connection and

access Internet from your mobile network connection,

or connect to a different Wi-Fi connection that has an

Internet connection.

Setting up the Zygote manually (Advanced)

You can set up the Zygote manually to an existing

network. This is done from the network settings in the

app or in a web browser on a computer. You need to

know the SSID and the network key for the network
