• Verify your WiFi router is connected to the internet and that it is broadcasting a visible, secure, 2.4Ghz network.
• 2 .4 Ghz network is required. If you only see 5 Ghz networks, you may need to log into your dual band router to choose to broadcast the
networks separately.
• Band steering may need to be temporarily turned off during setup.
• The 2.4Ghz network must use WPA or WPA2 security. WEP and Open networks are not compatible with the APak.
• Any VPNs or other network controls may need to be temporarily turned off during setup.
• Create a free account at zcontrolcloud.com.
• Locate the APak's Device ID on the top sticker.
• The above list also helps to troubleshoot connectivity issues.
• If the APak controller still will not connect after trying the above suggestions, follow the same steps to connect the APak to a mobile
phone hotspot instead of the home's wifi router. If the APak successfully connects to the cloud through the hotspot, then the conflict
likely has something to do with the router settings.

your phone/tablet/computer's list of available Wi-Fi
and selecting it will give you direct connectivity to the
APak . This is required in order to give the your APak

an SSID when powered by batteries (DC) only. It
must have AC power to broadcast an SSID. Once
the APak is connected to Wi-Fi , AC power may be

removed if desired. Since the APak
seen AC power and it has been removed, the APak
will now beep every 30 seconds indicating a power

is again applied and then removed). The LEDs and
