    Stage 4 - Finding the SWS GUI (Graphic User Interface)

    Open a web browser on a device that is on the same area network as your router, if you are running dual-band Wi-Fi you will need to be on the same band. If connecting on a mobile/cell phone, please ensure you have mobile/cellular data turned off.

    Your URL was provided when you registered your SWS. It is made up of your ID an example is given below to show the format:

    Find your SWS ID on the label on the front of the SWS. If you don't have this label anymore then it can be found by unclipping the back cover of the SWS.
