Home Page/Main Section
After completing the Setup Wizard, the Home Page of the Solis Hub will appear.
The Home Page is where users can check the connection status between the Solis Hub and the Internet, and adjust settings such as Wi-Fi options, parental controls, and more.
Banner
At the top of the Home Page, a banner consisting of icons is presented. Each of these icons represents a sub-section, we will explore each sub-section in this guide. We have already explored the Wizard sub-section earlier in this chapter. To the left of the icons, the current firmware version (FW) of the Solis Hub is displayed.
Network Map
The Network Map is located in the middle of the Home Page. The line between the Internet Globe, the Solis Hub, and the Internet devices on the map indicates the connection status between them.
A solid green line indicates a successful connection, whereas a red line with an x in the idle indicates that there is no connection.
If there is a red line with an x in the idle between the Internet Globe and the Solis Hub, there is no 4G LTE connection present. If there is a red line with an x in the idle between the Internet Globe and the Solis Hub it is an indication that there is no Wi-Fi connection between the Solis Hub and Internet devices either over Wi-Fi or via LAN.
The Internet Globe image, the Solis Hub image, the Desktop Image, and Control Panel Drop Down are all clickable and reveal menus.
