Setup, configuration, troubleshooting, and daily use guidance for the Klydoclock — an animated analog clock display device. Use when the user needs help connecting Klydoclock to WiFi (especially Orbi or other mesh networks), getting it on a 2.4GHz network, configuring display settings, using the remote control, managing Klydo content, or diagnosing any Klydoclock problem.
Klydoclock is a dual HD circular display that shows artist-created looping animations ("Klydos") with functioning analog clock hands overlaid on top. It requires a 2.4 GHz WiFi network — the single most common setup problem.
| Task | Reference |
|---|---|
| First-time setup, powering on, initial WiFi connection | setup.md |
| Connecting to Orbi, splitting 2.4/5 GHz, IoT SSID, mesh routers | network-config.md |
| Remote control buttons, settings menu, changing WiFi, display options | remote-usage.md |
| Klydos, collections, favorites, content cycling, subscription | content-features.md |
| Won't connect, freezes, remote not working, display issues | troubleshooting.md |
Klydoclock only supports 2.4 GHz WiFi. It cannot connect to 5 GHz.
Most modern mesh routers (including Orbi) broadcast a single combined SSID across both bands. Klydoclock fails or behaves unpredictably on these combined networks. The user must have a 2.4 GHz-only SSID visible before setup will succeed.
