Managing Your Household Settings

Household settings cover your account, Wi-Fi, gateway status, and billing in one place. Here's a tour of what each section controls.

The Settings hub

All household administration lives under Settings in the portal, organized into tabs so each task has an obvious home:

  • Account: your name, login, and password — plus the other members of your household and their roles.
  • Household: the household name, owner details, and your location label — useful for families with more than one home.
  • Network: Wi-Fi names and passwords for each band, applied to the gateway within a minute of saving.
  • Status: the gateway's live health — online state, firmware version, last check-in, and update history.
  • Billing: your plan, payment method, and subscription history.

Good habits

  • Keep a second parent on the account so a lost phone never locks the household out.
  • Review the members list when sitters or relatives change — access should match reality.
  • Check Status after any internet outage to confirm the gateway reconnected and your rules re-applied.

What settings don't do

Settings changes never alter your protection rules — profiles, categories, and schedules are managed from their own pages, so you can rename a network or update a card without touching what your kids experience.
