First you need to make sure you are connected to a 2.4GHz network. If you are not sure what your network is (You can also refer to the FAQ under "Split WI-Fi SSID" into 2.4G and 5G subnets). The extended 2.4 GHz network is split. It is recommended to use AP mode (AP mode will automatically select the 2.4GHz network to connect to) and then add it again. If you can connect to the device but have problems, you can tell us the device ID
 1. Open the app.
 2. Click on your device to go to the device details page.
 3. Click the icon at the top right corner to enter the "More" page.
 4. Click "Device Information" to view the device ID.
Thank you for your understanding and your support!

Please note when adding the device:
 1.Confirm that the device is turned on.
 2.Make sure the device is in EZ mode or AP mode.
 3.Make sure the device, smartphone and router are so close to each other. （The distance should be less than 5m, and there are no metal barriers or several walls in the middle.）.
 4.Make sure the network function of router and smartphone is not blocked.
 5.Verify that the entered router password is correct.
 6.Confirm that adding the device is under 2.4 WIFI channel. Enable the transmission and do not allow Wi-Fi to be hidden.
 7.Confirm that the encryption method of the router is WPA2-PSK and the authentication type is AES or both are set up as automatic.
 8.When the connected devices of the router reach the quantity limit. Please try to turn off the wireless function of some devices and configure them again.
 9.If the router enables the MAC address filter, remove the device from the MAC filter list and make sure the router allows the device to connect.
 10.Make sure that the DHCP service is enabled on the router. If it is not enabled, the address will be occupied.
 11.If it still does not work, the router may not be compatible with the device. It is recommended to replace the router and try again. 

Dear user, sorry for the problem. If you're having trouble adding a device to the app, follow these troubleshooting steps:
 1.Check if your device is powered on and powered on.
 2.Make sure the network environment has strong and stable signals. Troubleshooting: Place your mobile phone or iPad connected to the same local network near the device and open a web page to check if browsing is smooth and stable.
 3.If the network is normal but the device still fails to connect to the network, check whether the router is overloaded. You can disable a device's Wi-Fi capability to reserve the channel for resource reallocation.
 4.Check if the router password you entered is correct. Look for spaces before and after the WiFi account or for password and capitalization issues.
 5.Make sure that Wi-Fi broadcast is turned on and not hidden. Make sure your device was added over a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi band. (Check if the 2.4GHz band and the 5GHz band are using the same Wi-Fi account. In this case, we recommend configuring two accounts and during the network connection to the 2.4GHz band switch.)
 6.Make sure the encryption method and authentication type for the router's wireless settings are set to WPA2-PSK or AES, or both are set to Auto. Make sure the wireless mode is not set to 11n only.
 7.If wireless MAC address filtering is enabled for the router, remove your device from the router's MAC address filter list to ensure that it can connect to the network. You can also disable MAC address filtering.
 8.Make sure the router has DHCP service enabled. If not, the IP address will be occupied.

Dear User, Sorry for the inconvenience. If you have a lot of devices, you can add all the devices in your account at one time through the “Auto Scan” method, which supports multiple search methods to trigger at the same time, including Wi-Fi devices, Bluetooth gateways, Bluetooth mesh devices, Zigbee gateways and existing Zigbee devices under the gateway. All the devices found can be added at one time.
The following is the specific operation :
 1.On the homepage, click "+" in the upper right corner, and then you will enter the "Auto Scan" page. If you need to add Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices at the same time, it is recommended that you enable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and then click "Start Search".

There are two types of device network distribution, EZ Mode (quick flash) and AP Mode (slow flash) ：
For most devices that have a reset button (refer to the product manual to find the reset button)
 1.EZ Mode (quick flash) ： Firstly, make sure that the device is powered off for more than 10 seconds, then power on the device. Next, press and hold the reset button on the device for about 5 seconds until the indicator of the device starts flashing quickly. Now the device enters EZ Mode. You can add the device now.
 2.AP Mode (slow flash): There is no need to power off the device, but you need to press and hold the reset button on the device for about 5 seconds while the device's indicator is flashing fast, until the device's indicator starts to flash slowly, and the device enters AP Mode, You can add the device now. For lighting equipment such as smart bulbs 

To find your devices, first ensure that they are connected to the network. When the indicator of a paired device flashes quickly, it can be found. If the indicator flashes slowly, it does not support the Auto Scan mode. Some Wi-Fi devices can be connected only after you tap Configuring Wi-Fi, and enter the Wi-Fi account and password.

Dear user, we are sorry for your inconvenience. The difference between the two is:
 1.EZ mode: Smartconfig means that the mobile APP sends a UDP broadcast packet or a multicast packet containing the WIFI username WIFI password. The WIFI chip of the intelligent terminal can receive the UDP packet, as long as the UDP organization form is known, The WIFI username and password are decrypted by the received UDP packet, and then the WIFI username and password received by the intelligent hardware configuration are sent to the designated WIFI AP.
 2.AP mode: APP configures the mobile phone to connect to the intelligent hardware (AP of the WIFI chip). The mobile phone and the WIFI chip directly establish communication, and the WIFI user name and the WIFI password to be configured are sent to the intelligent hardware, and the intelligent hardware can be connected at this time. Configured on the router. Compared to the AP mode, the EZ mode is easier to use and quicker during first network pairing. However, some mobile phones and devices are incompatible with the EZ mode and require the AP mode.
