If you’re unable to connect a new device to your home WiFi—whether via QR code or manual MAC address entry—follow these steps to diagnose and resolve the issue.


Basic Checks

  1. 1. WiFi Signal Strength

    • Ensure your phone shows at least 2 bars of WiFi signal near the device.

    • If the signal is weak:

      • Move closer to the router.

      • Use a WiFi extender to improve coverage.

  2. 2. Verify WiFi Password

    • Double-check that the password entered is correct (including uppercase/lowercase letters and special characters).

    • If your WiFi password was recently changed, update it on the new device.

  3. 3. Confirm WiFi Frequency

    • Some devices only support 2.4GHz (not 5GHz).

    • If your router broadcasts both bands, ensure the device connects to 2.4GHz.


Advanced Troubleshooting

If the issue persists, try these steps:

  1. 1. Power Cycle the Device

    • Unplug the device for 10+ seconds, then reconnect.

    • This clears temporary errors and refreshes the connection.

  2. 2. Restart the App

    • Force quit the app, then reopen it.

    • This resolves app glitches that may interfere with setup.

  3. 3. Factory Reset & Reconnect

    • Locate the RESET button on the device.

    • Hold it for 5 seconds to restore default settings.

    • Set up the device again as if it were new.
