Now that your Chatterbox is all assembled and powered on, it's time to connect it to the internet.

Review the Wifi and Activation Process

Wifi over Sound

Wait, connect via sound?! How does THAT work?

It might sound weird but think of this process like an "audio QR code." We are able to transmit special data from your computer to Chatterbox over chirps that sound like a bird.

Those "chirps" tell your Chatterbox how to connect to your network auto-magically!

Please complete the following steps to connect your Chatterbox to WiFi:

  1. Open the below link in a Chrome or Firefox browser on a laptop or desktop computer. (Mobile/iPad not supported, Safari not supported)

  2. Follow the instructions to set up wifi, activate your device and connect to the skill builder.

Depending on the number or networks in your area, it might take up to 30 seconds to scan for your network. You can also move closer to your WiFi router for better scanning.

Alternatively, connect over Ethernet

If you don't want to connect via wifi network, you can connect your Chatterbox to the internet using a wired Ethernet cable. Simply, plug in the cable to your Chatterbox and it will be configured automatically.
