Connect a 2GIG EDGE to a Wi-Fi network

The panel can be connected to a Wi-Fi network by either manually selecting the network or using Wireless Protected Setup (WPS). 

Once the system is connected to Wi-Fi, Dual-Path communication can also be enabled. For more information about enabling Dual-Path, see Enable or disable Dual-Path communication remotely. 

Important: Verify the customer has a 2.4 GHz network. If the customer has a dual-band router, try disabling or re-naming the 5 GHz network so that the panel only attempts to connect to the 2.4 GHz network.
