Green means the Edge Hub is currently successfully connected to this network. Orange means the Edge Hub has already connected to this network, but it's currently not connected. For example, it's connected to another network, not in range, or so on. Red means the last attempt to connect to this network failed, for example, because of an incorrect password. You can select a WiFi network to visualize or configure the current connection settings on the right side of the page. if a WiFi network isn't automatically detected, click Enter.
