You won’t get any performance from the digital frame even with the Nixplay Plus subscription when you’re dealing with network-related issues. It is not a smart idea to connect all of your devices to the same network, and you’ll occasionally run into interference issues with the smart unit. So, try to find an extension for the set of Nixplay frames installed in your home.
However, if you’ve already set up the frame with your home network and want to switch to an extension, then here is how to change the Wi-Fi on the Nixplay frame.
Change Wi-Fi On Nixplay Frame
You can directly change the Nixplay frame Wi-Fi through the device settings. All you have to do is to cycle power through the frame and then access the network settings to select the new Wi-Fi router that you wish to connect with the Nixplay frame. So, follow through with these steps if you need to change Wi-Fi on the Nixplay Frame.
- Start by removing power from the frame for around 2 minutes and then boot up the frame to access the device settings.
- Click on the middle icon on the touch screen frame that looks like a gear, and that will forward you to general device settings.
- From there, you can navigate to the Network settings and select the Wi-Fi that you wish to add to the frame.
- Use the correct username and password, and your frame will connect to the new network without any difficulties. Make sure that there aren’t any special characters in the username or the password of the router, or you’ll be running into connectivity issues with the smart device.
- Lastly, you can test the server connection through the Nixplay touchscreen frame to make sure that everything is working properly and that there aren’t any network bugs. Keep in mind that you will have to go through the process again if the Nixplay frame runs into server connection issues after you connect it to the new router.
The majority of users prefer to completely reset the Nixplay frame to factory settings to change the Wi-Fi. So, if you keep running into bugs while trying to connect the frame to a different router, there is no harm in resetting the frame to factory settings. You will lose all the saved configurations, but at least your device will work perfectly with the new router. Moreover, you won’t have to bother with any issues that can impact the server connection.
In some situations, rebooting the router or moving it closer to the Nixplay frame will also help limit interferences. So, make sure that there aren’t too many wireless devices between the new router and the Nixplay frame when you’re first connecting the frame. Otherwise, the connection will frame, and the Nixplay unit won’t be able to connect to the servers. You can further engage some experts from Nixplay customer support, and they will make the transition much easier. You will be able to switch to the new network within minutes without wasting any time.
