Home NetWerks Connect

While I was able to connect to the fan easily and use Alexa just fine, for some reason I cannot use the manual switch anymore. I don’t always want to speak to turn on/off the light and fan or to time the lights. I should be able to use the manual switches for it but now it doesn’t work at all. Now I have to disconnect from Alexa just to use the manual switches again. Useless!!

Bathroom got redone with this fan....I connected with Bluetooth. It was super easy! This is fantastic! Now I can listen to my favorite music! And the lights are fantastic too! Thank you homewerks for making such a fascinating product! I hardly ever do reviews but I love the fan with Bluetooth built it!

Tried setting up via Bluetooth. Phone finds the fan. The fan says it’s connected to Wi-Fi. The fan has an IP. I can see the MAC address on the host table. Fan tells me it isn’t registered. Manual tells me to make an account but the app never gives me an option to make an account. Tried the setup with Wi-Fi network the fan generates. Fan tells me it’s connected to Wi-Fi. Get an error that says my phone and fan are connect to Wi-Fi. Make sure my phone is connected to Wi-Fi. My router is Plume so it may be blocking adds. I disabled that. Rebooted my Router, modem. Force closes the app. No change. *update* do not think the device links when your phone is connected to 5Ghz when the fan only connects to 2.4. If your SSID is the same or you have band steering enabled. You may have to turn it off. Also tried to connect this device to the network that only has internet access. Would not work. Even if I connected my phone to the network that only has internet access. The fan had to be on the side of the network with internal access. So far I’m not sure how I feel about this IoT device having internal access but be sure I’m watching it’s ip traffic.
