Can’t connect to Brain

Thanks Markus, I do have NEEO Link enabled. And I hadvnt checked recently but I believe my phone app does work when the remote couldn’t connect. Should I disable the NEEO Link? 

My firmware appears to be the latest release, I have been checking every couple days for updates. I do have a ton of electronic devices throughout the house. I even still have some sort of frequency issue with a WiFi aquarium pump that I can’t seem to figure out now that you mention it. I’ll look into some frequency changes across a couple devices and see if that helps.

Thanks 

I can’t figure it out, I unplugged the Ethernet on both of the brains and couldn’t connect either remote after multiple tries. Then I tried the app on my iPad. Switched the iPad to the 2.4ghz band just to stay on the same band.

After several attempts, the app wouldn’t connect. So I unplugged power to the brains, and reconnected Ethernet to the living room brain. Plugged power back in, after the light stopped blinking I tried to connect and it still wouldn’t connect the first few attempts. Finally on the 3rd or 4th attempt the app actually connected to the bedroom brain (wireless). I reset the WiFi on it just to be safe then tried to find the living room brain. After searching a little bit it was able to find both brains this time (there must be a decent delay after the light stops blinking and stays solid before the brain connects to WiFi). I then connected to the living room brain and reset the WiFi on the living room brain as well. 

I then tried to reconnect the living room remote and the first attempt was not successful, but the 2nd attempt did connect.  I’m tired of messing with it for the day and will just turn off the bedroom remote, I’ll try to connect it tomorrow and see what happens. Anyone else having this trouble and figure out what’s going on? 

Thx

Thanks Niels, I think I may have found something on my ASUS router. I’m not familiar with multicast settings though. Would you mind taking a look at the screenshot below. Should I enable one of these or both of these? Or do you think it could be something else even? Also, I don’t think I’m getting different IP addresses, but I’m not exactly sure how to very either. I appreciate any help you can give. Thx

Hey Niels, I tried enabling the IGMP a proxy first and continued to have trouble, so I enabled the IGMP Snooping and also had some trouble connecting. I then rebooted my router just to be safe, no success yet. I ended up doing a reboot on the living room remote first and when it turned back on it synced right up to the brain with no trouble. So I went to the bedroom and rebooted it as well. It synced up with the bedroom brain and I’m up and running with both remotes for the first time. So far so good! Thanks for all the help.

I sure am looking forward to the next firmware update. 

Well, I had a fun time this weekend tryin to decipher whether IGMP Proxy or IGMP Snooping helps my remotes work or if it’s a simple reboot. The answer is that I still don’t know. I did figure out however that my router had some internal issues I couldn’t figure out. This may be the cause with all my issues from the start. After messing with the router last week, changing channel frequency, enabling IGMP Multicasting options, etc I lost accessibility of my Nest Cameras within the House, oddly, I learned yesterday I could view them via LTE on my phone. I also had more trouble with some remote access software. When I started to disable the multicast setting to tinker I couldn’t get the bedroom remote to pair at all. 

Because i’d been having other trouble as well I decided to reset the router to its default setting and start over. This solved all my problems. But I was tired of messing with it so I just enabled both IGMP Proxy and IGMP Snooping. I had to re-pair both remotes and they didn’t immediately work. So I rebooted each after the first pair came up unsuccessful and they pair correctly upon boot up.
