If the robot connects to the WiFi successfully, you will hear a tune coming from the robot, together with a green LED ring. Then, the IP address of the robot will be shown on the LED screen. Hold down the left and right buttons to scroll the IP address across the screen to view.

Step 2: Open settings on your laptop, go to WiFi settings and connect your laptop to the same WiFi network that the robot just connected to.
Step 3: Close the current tab that the Portal was opened. Open a new tab, type the IP shown into the new tab on your browser and press Enter.
Step 4: Now, your Crawler’s IP address has become your personal portal address. Next time, just type in this IP into your browser to connect to the portal while going online. DO NOT use the link cyobot.portal.com while connecting to WiFi, since this is a public domain.
