Cannot connect a new LB110

Hello,

I already have a Kasa Smartbulb and have bought a second one but I can't connect it to the app.

When I added it, it was supposed to flash 3 times, but it did not.

I then switched it off and on 3 times according to the instructions (the instructions say on and off, which is wrong as it was already switched on!), and it then blinked 3 times.

I then clicked on "Next" and on "I am already connected" (I can switch on the first lamp, so I am connected to the wifi), then the connection is supposed to be established, but that doesn't work.

What can I do?

@Proape

For a smart bulb that is configured over WiFi (the other type is Bluetooth), there are two steps in the configuration process that require a WiFi connection. the first is connecting to the smart bulb WiFi, which is the step you are stuck with, and this is the step that connects your phone to the smart bulb wifi to allow the kasa app to discover the device and proceed to the next step.

In your phone's WiFi list, you should find a WiFi with a name similar to Kasa Smart Bulb XXXX. When the app prompts you to connect to the device's WiFi, go to your phone's WiFi list and manually connect to this WiFi, and then go back to the kasa app to proceed with the rest of the configuration.

Then the next step will be selecting a router WiFi to connect.
