Can't connect to Wi-Fi

 

 

If your Smart Formula Mixer is having connection issues or timing out during setup, verify that you are trying to connect to the 2.4GHz network. Most WiFi routers have both 2.4GHz or 5GHz. The 5GHz network usually has a default network name with ‘5G’ suffix.

Check if you are on 2.4GHz network:

You can check the network names on your phone: 

For IOS users: 

1. Search and download “Airport” in the App store

2. Go to Settings,find "AirPort" at the bottom of settings and click on it.

3. Turn on the Wi-Fi scanner.

4. Open the "AirPort" app and tap on wifi scan in the top right corner.

5.Tap scan

6.Check the channels of your Wi-Fi. Usually channels 1-13 are 2.4Ghz and channels greater than 13 are 5Ghz.

For Android Users: 

1.Search for "netspot" on Google Play, then download and install it.

2. Open netspot, you can directly query the corresponding frequency band of the connected network.


 

If you see two or more WiFi network names that belong to you, then you probably have a 2.4GHz and 5GHz dual-band router. If so, from your smartphone's Wireless settings page, look at the names of your WiFi networks.

    • A 2.4 GHz network may have "24G," "2.4," or "24" appended to the end of the network name. Or it might not have anything at all after the name.
    • A 5 GHz network may have "5G," "5g," 5GHz," or "5" appended to the end of the network name, for example "MyWirelessNetwork - 5g"
    • When setting up your LivingEZ product, connect to the 2.4GHz band.
    • Sometimes the names of the 2.4G and 5G networks are the same. In this case check under the router settings to find the name of the 2.4G network, you may also change the network names into 2 different names by contacting your ISP.

 

Still having difficulty connecting to your network?

If you are still having difficulty after verifying that you are on a 2.4GHz network, try the following troubleshooting steps:

  1. Make sure the WiFi password you are using is not the same as your LivingEZ app password. Also, check that your password is correct and keep in mind that the password is case sensitive.
  2. Ensure your password doesn't have a space at the beginning and/or the end.
  • Such as "  mypassword" or "mypassword  "
  • Make sure your network name doesn't include special characters. (such as“ \ { } $ * ”)
  • Forget your WiFi network (for IOS devices use the small i sign next to the network name, for Android devices long press on the network name), restart the device that the application is on, and reconnect to your WiFi network.
  • Unplug the machine from the wall socket 
  • Wait for 30 seconds 
  • Plug it back in
  • Run the setup process again
  • The last step we recommend is to force closing the app and opening it back up again.
