EmotiBit Oscilloscope is not detecting EmotiBits connected to the WiFi network!

If your EmotiBit is connected to the WiFi network (indicated by the green light on the Feather) and your EmotiBit Oscilloscope still does not display (detect) available EmotiBits, then it is most likely a permission issue with the firewall.

Make sure that the EmotiBit and EmotiBit Oscilloscope are on the same network. Once verified, you may try the following to resolve this issue:
