1) 5 GHz? Your smartphone might use 5 GHz network and the product cannot detect it. Solution: Your smartphone can stay on the 5GHz network, but the product must be connected to a 2,4 GHz network. Therefore, you select here a 2,4 GHz network for the product. The pairing will work even you will get back to the 5 GHz network.
Note: - Please check that your internet modem is either 2,4 GHz or a dual band router that is configured to support 2,4 GHz. The product does not support the 5 GHz band. - How to determine if your router supports the 2,4 GHz band, 5 GHz or both? Sometimes when the dual band is available, there are 2 different networks and they are indicated with names such as 'mynetwork24', 'mynetwork24GHz' or 'mynetwork2-4'.
2) Hidden SSID? If your network is 'hidden', then you can type manually the SSID (network name) by pressing "Enter SSID".
Please verify the following: • Is your smartphone close enough to your product? If it is too far, your smartphone won't detect the broadcasting of the product Wi-Fi. • Have you pressed the Wi-Fi button? The Wi-Fi access point stops broadcasting after a few minutes. • Is the Wi-Fi button blinking? If not, please press again for 3 seconds to the Wi-Fi. • Please try again the pairing process.
If you have checked the list above and you are still blocked, please do the following (product hard reset): 1) While the product is switched on, press the "Mode" button and "Wi-Fi" button at the same time. You should hear a beep and the product is switched off automatically. 2) Unplug the product, wait for 1 minute, and re-plug the product. 3) Switch on the product and press the Wi-Fi button to broadcast the access point. 4) Go to the setting of the telephone and confirm that you see the Wi-Fi network called 'SEB_accessPoint' (screenshot below). 5) Select the 'SEB_accessPoint' network. • If your telephone gets connected automatically, please 'remove' this network from the pre-registered Wi-Fi list. After this operation, please verify that this 'SEB_accessPoint' is still present in the Wi-Fi list of your telephone. • If your telephone asks you a password, then please cancel it. It's a good sign, it means that the application will be able to handle this part. 6) Go back to the app and start again the pairing process.
Note 1: For certain smartphones, after it is connected to the product Wi-Fi ('SEB_accessPoint'), you may see a message asking you to confirm if you want to stay on this network which has no internet connection. At this point, this behavior is normal, because you are connected to the product, which has no internet connection. It will be restored once the product has joined your home Wi-Fi. Therefore, please reply to this question so that you stay connected to this network.
Note 2: If you have a smartphone who has an option of the Wi-Fi assistant "switch between Wi-Fi networks and mobile data when Wi-Fi connection is poor" (such as Xiaomi), please deactivate it. If it is activated when your smartphone is connected to the appliance as an access point, the smartphone will detect that there no internet with this access point (which is normal at this step of the pairing). The smartphone will find another network for you and the application cannot go any further in the pairing process.
