Can I enter my wifi name and SSID manually? I have a hidden wifi and TP-Link would not allow me to manually enter to set up. null

No need to enter your hidden SSID or password. My SSID is also hidden & I had no issues setting mine up in seconds. Just download the iHome Control App & it will connect automatically using the information from your phone. Quick & easy!

This type of device installs via it's brand app on your smart phone. If the phone (or tablet) is on the network, it pushes the network information and login keys over to the device upon setup.

Hello. I have the device but my network is not hidden so I don't know the answer, however hiding your SSID does nothing but create problems for your own network. If a hacker wants the SSID then it is easy to get with free tools since it is not encrypted or anything (just not broadcast without a specific request). All hiding does for the legitimate users is create more work and network disconnects. Just use a non-offensive name, broadcast it and be done with it. :-)
