Common Problems

Fail to pair Wi-Fi devices to eWeLink APP

1. Make sure the device is in pairing mode. After three minutes of unsuccessful pairing, the device will automatically exit pairing mode.
2. Please turn on location services and allow location permission. Location information permission is used to obtain Wi-Fi list information. If you click 'Disable', you will not be able to add devices.
3. Make sure your Wi-Fi network runs on the 2.4GHz band.
4. Make sure you entered a correct Wi-Fi SSID and password; no special characters are contained. Wrong password is a common reason for pairing failure.
5. The device should be close to the router for a good transmission signal condition while pairing.

Wi-Fi devices "Offline" issue

Check the following problems based on the Wi-Fi LED indicator status:

The LED indicator blinks once every 2 seconds means you fail to connect to the router.

1. Maybe you entered the wrong Wi-Fi SSID and password.
2. Make sure that your Wi-Fi SSID and password don't contain special characters (e.g., Hebrew, Arabic characters), as the system may not recognize them and fail to connect to Wi-Fi.
3. Maybe your router has a lower carrying capacity.
4. Maybe the Wi-Fi strength is weak. Your router is too far from your device, or there may be an obstacle between the router and device blocking the signal transmission.
5. Ensure the MAC address of the device is not on the blacklist of your MAC management.

The LED indicator flashes twice repeatedly means you fail to connect to the server.

1. Make sure the Internet connection is working. You can use your phone or PC to connect to the Internet. If it fails, check the availability of the Internet connection.
2. Maybe your router has a low carrying capacity. The number of devices connected to the router exceeds its maximum value. Please confirm the maximum number of devices your router can handle. If it exceeds, delete some devices or get a larger router.
3. Please contact your ISP and confirm your server address is not shielded:
   • cn-disp.coolkit.cc (China Mainland)
   • as-disp.coolkit.cc (in Asia except China)
   • eu-disp.coolkit.cc (in EU)
   • us-disp.coolkit.cc (in US)

If none of the above methods solve the problem, please submit your request via 'Help&Feedback' on the eWeLink APP.
