SSID

ZenLINK™ supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi but not 5GHz during initial setup. Most routers combine both, making setup easy. If your router splits them, connect to the 2.4GHz network to ensure proper connection and functionality.

5GHz

PS_Remote_Play

ZenLINK™ uses 2.4GHz Wi-Fi for broad compatibility. Most modems combine 2.4GHz and 5GHz, so setup is easy. If your modem splits them, connect your device to the 2.4GHz network when setting up ZenLINK™ for proper connection.

2.4GHz
