7. Maintaining Your Smart Light Switch Firmware Updates To keep the smart light switch up-to-date with the latest improvements and fixes, you should always update the firmware when available. On the Device Settings screen, tap Upgrade Firmware. Factory Reset Factory resetting the smart light switch can help you troubleshoot any issues you may have. Please keep in mind that factory resetting a device will erase all of your custom settings and restore the factory default settings.
8. Troubleshooting Q: Why can’t I connect my light switch to my WiFi network during setup? Make sure your phone is connected to a 2.4GHz WiFi network. Smart light switches currently only support 2.4GHz WiFi networks during configuration, but you can use any available network, including cellular data networks, to control the switch from your phone once you’ve finished setting up... Try moving your router closer to your smart switch (164 ft / 50 m visible range is best).
Once the smart switch has been deleted and reset, reconfigure your smart switch with the VeSync app. Note: Power outages or changing WiFi routers may cause your smart switch to go offline. Q: Why won't the VeSync app let me add my smart switch? If the smart switch is already added to another person's VeSync app, ask them to share the smart switch with you (see Share Your Smart Switch, page 19) so that you can control it with your VeSync account. Be sure your WiFi password is entered correctly.
