The Linksys app dashboard offers a snapshot of your WiFi. Here, you can see the connection status of the node, the number of devices in the network, and other settings that you can configure for your WiFi using your Android™ device.
 


 


Settings may vary depending on your Linksys router's model.



Before you begin, you must first access the Linksys app dashboard.
