Don't buy this socket
This socket needs 2.4Ghz WiFi network and will not work Wifi networks with both 2.4 and 5Gjz networks. Most of the routers provided by Irish Isps have both and doesn't allow to split between 2.4 and 5 GHz networks. I tried connecting using the manual AP mode, but the led indicator lights way too feable to even understand if the socket has power or not, let alone to see if it has entered confirmation mode. I have an expensive dump socket sitting on my front yard now. Do yourself a favour and don't buy this thing.
