Checking Your Internet Connection Status Before Using Your Tapo Device - Android

Failure to follow the precautions may result in the product not functioning properly.

Before installing your Tapo device, check your home internet environment.

(Important) While connected to your home Wi-Fi network on your smartphone, check your smartphone's IP address.

How to check IP address on Android:

1. Go to Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi.
2. Tap on your connected Wi-Fi network.
3. Look for the IP address, usually displayed as 192.168.XXX.XXX or similar.

Verification: If the IP address does not start with 192.168.XXX.XXX or 172.30.XXX.XXX as shown in the example screenshot, your router is not properly connected to the internet. You may need to reconnect the cables.

Router Cable Connection Check: Ensure the cable from your modem or wall outlet is connected to the router's "WAN Port" or "Internet Port". Then, recheck the IP address to see if it has changed.

Precautions Before Using Tapo Devices

Failure to follow these precautions may result in the product not functioning properly.

1. Your Tapo device must be connected to your home router.
   • Connect to a router that allows you to change the Wi-Fi name and password.
   • If you live in an apartment, the default router installed on the ceiling may not be usable.
   • Public Wi-Fi networks in cafes or commercial areas are not supported.
   • For wired hubs, connection to a carrier modem (device without an antenna) is not supported.
2. If you replace the connected router or change the Wi-Fi name and password, you must reset the device and reinstall it.
   • If you move the Tapo device to a different location after installation, you must also reset the device and reinstall it.
   • Tapo devices will not function properly in locations without internet access.
3. The Tapo H110 Hub uses IR (Infrared) signals.
   • It can only control devices that operate with infrared remotes; it does not support RF wireless frequency communication.
4. If the hub is not functioning correctly, first check the LED status.
   • Refer to the respective product website for LED status explanations.
   • If you are unsure about the problem, try unplugging the power for a moment and then plugging it back in to see if it operates normally.

Hub Reset Method

1. Turn on the hub's power.
2. Press and hold the oval button on the side of the hub.
3. Check if the LED blinks rapidly in amber and white. (Do not unplug the power during this process.)

Setting Up Your Tapo H110 Hub

1. Connect the hub to a Type-C cable.
2. Download and install the Tapo app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.

9. Choose your specific hub model (e.g., Tapo H110).
