  2. Please turn on location services and allow location permission. Before choosing the Wi-Fi network, location services should be turned on and location permission should be allowed. 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 contained. Wrong password is a very common reason for pairing failure.
  5. The device shall get close to the router for a good transmission signal condition while pairing.

Wi-Fi devices “Offline” issue, Please check the following problems by the Wi-Fi LED indicator status:
