Frequently Asked Questions

• Yes, you can connect our WiFi products to a Wireless Router.
• It needs to have a WAN/Internet (Ethernet) port to accept the product connection. Network settings are provided automatically to the WiFi product it is plugged into.
• How you provide DC power to a router is important to consider. Some boats (and vehicles, e.g., RV’s) need to connect direct 12vDC (no 120vAC to DC wall plug). You need to know what such a router requires and be very careful with voltage and polarity. Other companies’ router products are beyond the scope of our support.
