Make sure your explorers are connected to your Wi-Fi network. You can see how many explorers are connected next to People at the top. If there are no explorers present, tap Connect Explorers or People and see Networking problems for help. To connect from the explorer devices, tap the red Open Wi-Fi Settings link to turn on Wi-Fi and connect to the correct network.
