Advanced Wireless Network Guidelines
If you are accessing your organization's wireless network, work with your system administrator to ensure the following requirements are addressed.
Ensure that the network is WPA2-PSK compatible:
|
|
Unhide wireless network | |
Whitelist *.Skydio.com | |

Ensure that Skydio X2 is connected to a 5 GHz wireless network:
Standard 5GHz networks include a set of channels, known as UNII-2, that are used for weather radar systems. To avoid conflict with these systems, a device that operates on these channels is required to implement Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS). Skydio drones do not support 5 GHz wifi networks on U-NII-2 per the United States Federal Communications Commission regulations.
