1.     Introduction

Openwrt H&T Monitor is developed by DeviceBit, which is composed of a router with Openwrt OS system installed and a USB dongle with humidity and temperature (H&T) sensor. It monitors real-time humidity and temperature and uploads the data to DeviceBit platform after connecting the router to WiFi network in your house or office.

Step 1 Preparation

First, insert USB dongle to the router USB port. Connect the power cable and switch on the router.

Then use your Laptop or PAD to search for the WiFi signal “OpenWrt-Lewei” and connect it. No password for it.

Or you can also use Ethernet cable to connect to the LAN/WAN port of router directly and then configure it.

Step 2 Configure the WiFi network

Note: Don not forget to uncheck “Replace wireless configuration”.

Then click “Submit”.

 

Double check the configuration and click “Save and Apply” to finish Wifi network configuration.

Now you can browse the internet via wifi network “OpenWrt-Lewei”. If not, you need to check whether you can browse the internet via the upper Wifi network joined (like “1003” as shown in the picture).

Note: If you enter the wrong password of your Wifi network, after configuration the wifi signal “OpenWrt-Lewei” will be disappeared and you have to use Ethernet cable to connect the LAN/WAN port and to correct the configuration.
