WIFI

Navigate to ‘System’->’WIFI’ to access the Wifi settings.

On the WiFi settings page, users have the option to:

• 
  

• Set up MaestroDMX to create its own network that your device (computer, tablet, etc) can connect to. This is the default behavior. Here you can also set SSID (network name) and password.

• Connect MaestroDMX to an existing local wireless network (such as your home wifi). This allows you to connect to MaestroDMX as long as your device is connected to your local network.

WiFi Settings

Within the WiFi Settings, users have the option to switch between two distinct modes: “Create a WiFi Network” and “Connect to an Existing WiFi Network”, such as your local router.

Note: Please be aware that modifying WiFi settings may require a few minutes, during which you may experience a temporary disconnection from the web app.

Create a WiFi Network

By default, Maestro serves up its own network with a unique SSID labeled as “Maestro-XXXXXX.” In this mode, users have the flexibility to personalize the SSID and modify the password for the Maestro network. To achieve this:

1. Switch into “Create a WiFi Network” mode

2. Input a preferred SSID of your choice

3. Specify a password that grants access to your Maestro network

4. Click “Update WiFi Settings” to apply the changes

5. Connect your device to the new MaestroDMX WiFi network

6. Close the MaestroDMX app and re-open it in a new browser window

Warning: In the event of a forgotten password, the only means of connecting to the Maestro will be through an Ethernet connection or by installing a network reset package available on the Software Updates page. This will reset the password to 'mymaestro'.

Note: Users have the flexibility to modify SSIDs and passwords as often as needed.

Connect to an Existing WiFi Network 

This mode provides a straightforward connection between MaestroDMX and personal devices by connecting Maestro to an existing local network that your device is also connected to, such as your home wifi network for example. To achieve this:

1. Switch into 'Connect to an Existing WiFi Network' mode

2. Enter the SSID of the desired network

3. Input the network password

4. Click 'Update WiFi Settings' to finalize the configuration

5. Connect your device to the local WiFi network

6. Close the MaestroDMX web app and re-open it in a new browser window

Warning: In the event of a forgotten password, the only means of connecting to the Maestro will be through an Ethernet connection or by installing a network reset package available on the Software Updates page. This will reset the password to 'mymaestro'.

Site Survey

The site survey provides a list of networks in the vicinity, along with pertinent details and signal strength information. It also offers an alternative method to connect Maestro to an existing network. Simply choose the “Connect to an Existing Network” mode, then click “Join” next to the desired network.

NOTE: Be sure to close the MaestroDMX app and re-open it in a new browser window.
