Once this is complete, the light ring should go into a circular pattern. Light ring will illuminate once power is applied: This ring will illuminate and you will see some flashing for approximately 1min. New Bridge Install: A newly installed bridge must go thru the following sequence:

The light ring around the sides of the bridge will provide you with a couple of different indications. Once connected to your network, the bridge will go through several steps to initialize the system. Your bridge is now beginning the initialization process and you can now proceed to Step 3. Once power is connected, you will see the light ring illuminate around the sides of the bridge. When you search, please make sure to purchase one that specifically states that it is an unmanaged ethernet switch.Īfter connecting the ethernet cable to the router or unmanaged switch, you can now connect the power to the bridge with the supplied power supply. These typically cost less than $20 and can easily be found on-line or at a local office supply or computer equipment store. If you do not have an open port, you can add additional ethernet connections by purchasing an unmanaged ethernet switch and plugging that into your router. Using an ethernet cable connect your Lutron Smart Bridge to an open LAN port on your router. Now that you have identified the correct router to connect to your Smart Bridge, proceed to Step 2

The Lutron Smart Bridge will need to be connected to the JONES_Wi-Fi router via the ethernet LAN port. In this example, you will want to make sure to connect all of your smart devices to the same Wi-Fi Network: JONES_Wi-Fi. Let's say we call this one: JONES_Wi-Fi Now you will have (2) different Wi-Fi networks in your home that you are able to connect to. To improve Wi-Fi strength, you added additional routers to your network. (Eero, Google Wi-Fi, Orbi, etc.) The new router(s) will need to have a different Wi-Fi Network Name. You could have your ISP router in Example 1 with Wi-Fi Name: XYZ_123. Your Lutron Smart Bridge will need to be connected to that router. All of your connected Wi-Fi devices (phone, tablet, smart speaker, etc.) will need to use that Wi-Fi network.

Let's say that you named this Wi-Fi network: XYZ_123. You may have a Wi-Fi router supplied by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
