Wifi hotspot Hoxton Direct not showing.
Please try the following steps:
- Is the device powered on? Check status LEDs.
- While the device is powered on - push the reset button with a pen/pencil for a minimum of 5 seconds or until the status LEDs change pattern.
- Wait 30 seconds.
- Check for wifi hotspot.
- If not found, ensure the camera does not have an active network ethernet connection - the camera will prioritise an ethernet connection, bypassing the hotspot function.
I have connected to Hoxton Direct hotspot but the wifi configuration page is not loading.
- Go into any web browser and type the following into the address bar: 192.168.42.1 and hit enter
- If the pop up window does not appear, try a different web browser (ie: Safari/Chrome).
- If the pop up window still doesn't appear repeat steps 6 & 7 on a different phone/computer.
- If none of the above steps work please contact support@hoxton.ai.

- Connect to an ethernet cable from one of the wifi router's ports to the LAN connection on the PoE power plug.
- Press reset switch for 5 seconds or until the LED lights behaviour changes.
- Check if the device comes online by reviewing LED lights status. See device statuses for more information.

Next steps.
Once you have completed these steps and your camera is powered and connected to internet - you are ready to get it registered and set up in one of your sites. This is done from the control room. You can learn more about camera registration in the control room user guide.
To login to the control room you will need your HoxtonAi welcome email. If you haven't received this email, please check your spam and junk folders - the email will be titled Welcome to HoxtonAi. If you still can't find the email, please contact support@hoxton.ai.
