Routing devices

Routing devices are only required if some or all rooms are not connected after installation.

Overview

In some hotels—especially larger properties or those with complex layouts—you may need to extend the Valpas network’s range. Routing devices help ensure all rooms stay connected and your Valpas certification remains active.

This guide explains how to add routing devices to support your Valpas guest room technology.

1

Place a routing device near the router

• Find the Valpas router (the main unit that connects the Valpas platform to the internet).

• Place one routing device close to the router. This helps strengthen the signal for the rest of the network.

2

Place routing devices between the router and the nearest room

• The number of devices needed depends on the distance between the router and the rooms.

• Placing routing devices between the router and the rooms helps the network reach all areas of your hotel.

3

Turn on the routing devices

• Routing devices use pre-installed batteries.

• Remove the battery strip to power them on.

• The devices will connect automatically to the Valpas network.

4

Check that the routing devices are working

• It may take up to 8 hours for the rooms to show as online in the Valpas app.

• If rooms that were previously offline now show as online, the routing devices are working properly.
