Setting up.

How can I download the Nokia app?

Using the Nokia WiFi app, you can manage your Nokia WiFi Router and Beacons (Full-On WiFi customers only). The app allows you to control your Nokia WiFi network directly from your smartphone. You can share your guest network, restrict connections for specific devices, see the devices connected to your network, and adjust network settings.

To get the Nokia WiFi app, go to the Play Store (for Android) or the App Store (for iOS) and download and install it.

How to set up the Nokia app?

1) Download the Nokia WiFi mobile app – it’s available on both android and iOS.  

2) Open the Nokia WiFi app on your phone and get started 

Tap Get Started 

If the network is already set up (without using the app and /or by a technician) and this is the first time using the app,  be sure your mobile phone is connected to the WiFi network and tap Get Started to set up the network with the app.

3) Connect the app to the route device Log-in using the Username and Password printed on the back of your router. After the root device is found, you will be asked to join the network that is broadcasted from the root device. They network name and WiFi Key is on the sticker on the bottom of the device. The app will need a couple minutes to connect and "prepare" your device. You will then be asked to create an account.

Does G.Network come with parental controls and how do I set them up?

Using the Nokia app you can take control of your network by creating profiles for individual users and assigning their devices to them with individual rules and access.

You can also set different schedules and bedtimes to limit internet access at certain times of the day, and create a blacklist of websites to prevent specific unwanted content from being seen.

Set up a profile

  1. Tap Profiles at the bottom navigation on the home screen.
  2. In the Family Profiles screen, tap Create New (to set up a profile for the first time) or Add Family Profile (to set up an additional profile).
  3. Give the profile a name and select the devices that you would like to add to the profile.

For each profile:

  • Internet access can be enabled / disabled at any time.
  • Schedules can be setup for internet access to be enabled or disabled
  • A bedtime can be setup (no internet access)
  • Individual websites can be blocked

Note: By default, all devices are assigned to the Home profile. If you remove a device from any other profile, it will automatically be reassigned to the Home profile. Devices can only belong to one profile at a time.
