As the title states, I recently switched my router from the one Verizon provided to a pair of eero Pro 6E. I was able to add my cams- Wyze Cam V2, Wyze Cam Pan, Wyze Cam Pan v3- onto the new network. The bulbs however, that is a very different story.
The eero app has a couple of options to troubleshoot devices that cannot connect- pausing 5GHz and Legacy Mode for devices that can’t detect WiFi 6:
Eero support made another suggestion I had not tried, enable the guest network and try connecting to that. First, I tried pausing 5GHz, then Legacy Mode, then Guest network, then just about every combination of those options I could think of- the result is always the same. The best case scenario is that the Wyze app on my iPhone sees the bulb’s wifi network, I select it then go back to the app, after a moment the app says it’s added. However, the app cannot control it, and after another minute or so, the bulb goes back into pairing mode.
Anything else I should be trying? I’m getting ready to give a half dozen of these bulbs away and get another brand, probably Philips so as not to add yet another ecosystem into my network!
Please. Help. Thank you.
