Set up with the board's own WiFi

This works on every device, including iPhone and iPad.

1. Power on your board. If it has no WiFi details it starts setup mode and shows what to join on its screen. (If it has already been set up, see Dottie Board buttons, setup mode and updates, or for a legacy RNLI board Legacy RNLI board: setup mode and resetting WiFi.)
2. On your phone, tablet or computer, open the WiFi settings and join the network the board shows. On a legacy RNLI board it starts with DottieBoard-; on every other Dottie Board it starts with DB-. Either way it is followed by the first part of your board's ID. The password is dottie123.
3. Open your browser and go to http://192.168.4.1.
4. Choose your home WiFi from the list and enter its password. The password goes straight to the board and is never sent to our servers.
5. Submit. The board restarts. Unplug it and plug it back in once so it starts cleanly.
6. When the board shows a code, go to dottieboards.com, choose Connect with a code and enter it.

On an iPhone, your phone may warn that the network has no internet. That is expected: choose to stay connected until you have entered your details.
