The YoLink Hub is the central controller of your YoLink system and the gateway to the Internet for your YoLink devices. As opposed to many smart home systems, the individual devices (sensors, switches, outlets, etc.) are not on your network or Wi-FI and are not directly connected to the internet. Instead, your devices communicate with the Hub, which connects to the internet, the cloud server and the app.

The Hub connects to the internet via a wired and/or WiFi connection to your network. As the wired method is "plug & play" we recommend using this method, because it is the easiest to set-up and it does not require making changes to settings for your phone or network equipment (now, or in the future -- changing your WiFi password later would require changing the password for the Hub). The Hub may otherwise be connected to the internet via a 2.4GHz (only*) band WiFi provided by your network. See the Support section of this manual for more information. *5GHz band is not supported at this time.

Your system may have more than one Hub, due to the number of devices (one Hub can support at least 200 devices), and/or the physical size of your home or building(s) and/or property. YoLink's unique Semtech® LoRa®-based long-range/low-power system offers industry-leading range - up to 1/4 mile reach in open air!
