Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Frame does not power on. | Power adapter not connected or faulty. | Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to the frame and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet. |
| Cannot connect to Wi-Fi. | Incorrect password, 5GHz network, or weak signal. | Verify Wi-Fi password. Ensure your router is broadcasting a 2.4 GHz network (the frame does not support 5 GHz). Move the frame closer to the router. Restart the frame and router. |
