There are some circumstances in which Kasa smart devices do not work stably or lose connection from time to time, this could be due to the network environment or some other reasons, here are some helpful tips to fix the situation.


1. Ensure the router is working properly. Reboot the router and Kasa device and see if the smart device reconnects.


2. Ensure the Kasa smart device is receiving a Good Wi-Fi signal by checking the signal strength on the Kasa app. If the signal strength is less than -70dBm, move the Kasa device closer to your router for a try.


3. Update the firmware of the Kasa device and ensure the Kasa APP is up to date in the APP store or Google Play.


4. Turn off Advanced Wi-Fi settings on the router like "Band Steering" (also called "Smart Connect" or "Whole-Home Wi-Fi"), Wi-Fi Optimizing or "Channel optimization" etc.


5. [Optional] Try to configure the smart device to another router's 2.4G Wi-Fi or a mobile Hotspot Wi-Fi to verify whether this issue is related to the specific router.


Below are the detailed instructions to reference if needed.

My cable company changed the router and hence... the network name and password.  So, now my Bulbs and plugs are not on that network.  How can I reconnect them to the new network?  I'm on an Iphone and all I get is a message that it can't connect to the device.  I can't get to a Settings page to change the wifi name or anything.  Help
