Issue
- Cannot connect my Air Purifier to the home router (Technicolor brand)
- After successful onboarding after about 5 minutes, the notification appears “Cannot connect…make sure you entered the correct Wi-Fi password.”
Applies to
- Pure A9 series Air Purifiers firmware version below 2.20
- AX9 series Air Purifier firmware version below 2.20
- Technicolor routers
Resolution
- Get a different Wi-Fi source that has internet connection and that you have the password to. For example, use a smartphone with Wi-Fi hotspot enabled.
- Start a new onboarding session and follow the directions in the app.
- Make sure that you choose the new Wi-Fi source to connect to.
- When the purifier is successfully paired keep it connected for at least 15 minutes
- Check that the firmware is updated. The information can be found in the Wellbeing app under "product information". Firmware after 2.20 works with all routers.
- Onboard to your preferred home router.
As an alternative, change your home router security protocol from WEP/WPA to WPA2 and run onboarding again. For detailed instruction check your router documentation
Cause
- Old firmware on the purifier. Versions below 2.20 has this issue together with Technicolor routers. When connected to the cloud the purifier will automatically update the firmware
