The Access Points can need your monitoring. You can check their latest activity and connection and change their settings.

This article will go through three places on the Dashboard and what you can see there.

Collators page

To open this page go to Site Info and select Collators. Now you will see a list of all the Access Points in your system. Now let’s go through what you see on this page.

1. Collator - this is the ID of the Access Point.

2. Status - this informs you if the Access Point has a connection to the internet. There are three indicators:

• Green - Access Point is connected and the last upload has been less then an hour ago.
