  • How to Set Up Vilo (Wifi 5)
    Vilo Device
    First, make sure you have downloaded the Vilo App and created an account. Once logged into the app, click “Add Vilo” on the home screen, and follow the instructions on each screen to set up your main Vilo. Ensure the light on your Vilo is solid amber, this means it is ready for setup.

    When you get to the “Connect To Wi-Fi” page, tap the "Scan QR Code" button to scan the QR code on the bottom of your Vilo to connect to the Wi-Fi.

    If you are using an Android device or are unable to connect using the QR code scanner, select the "Manually Connect to Wi-Fi" button. This will take you to the Wi-Fi settings page on your phone. Here you can select the Wi-Fi network with the name matching the Wi-Fi name on the bottom of your Vilo and connect using the default password (also found at the bottom of your Vilo).
    Once connected and back in the Vilo app you should see the “Create Wi-Fi Network” page in the app. Then tap the “Activate Wi-Fi Network” button to link the Vilo with your Vilo account. You will see a progress bar followed by the "Activation Successful" page.

    If the Vilo app detects your home network as DHCP, then on the “Add Vilo” page when it shows “Success”, you can hit the button “Change Wi-Fi name and password”. Here you will be able to change the Wi-Fi name and password to a personalized name and password.

    If the Vilo app detects your home network as PPPOE and your ISP requires you to provide a login credential (some ISPs have a PPPOE network but do not require you to type in login credentials), you will be prompted to type in a username and password for the PPPOE network, then hit the next button. After this step, you can hit the button “Change Wi-Fi name and password”. Here you will be able to change the Wi-Fi name and password to your desired name and password, then hit “OK”.
