We have poor T-Mobile reception in our location, and I just purchased a Wilson We:boost Home MultiRoom to hopefully improve it. It arrived today. We are in a small town of about 24,000 residents, but all we can receive is LTE. (Thus, the booster). We are using a T-Mobile 5G Home Internet with primarily 2 bars, infrequently 3 bars, and sometimes 1 bar or no reception. It is now showing 2 bars. We seemed to have enjoyed better reception prior to 2024, and the TP-Links then worked fine on both TVs. I just tried turning off Wi-Fi on my phone and the Smart Outlets will NOT work. With Wi-Fi, they do work except for the problems I have with Groups.

I’ll try the disconnect/reconnect recommendation on the accounts as well as resetting the 5G Home WiFi unit.

I’m using new names already for the devices, but will try others after the completing the reset and reconnect. WiFi and phone reception here is often better in mornings, so I’ll try tomorrow morning and update the post.

Oh, we have 2 transmission towers located between 1 and 3 miles from us. I talked with a T-Mobile representative about 6 months ago who had just moved from their Telecom division and still had his software. He said we have 5 towers serving our home, but all of them are at the apex of their signals. He felt the booster might help, but it varies at each location. He said we will have excellent service when their Telecom unit installs a closer tower or increases bandwidth on any of the towers. To see 5G on my Pixel 7 Pro phone, I have to drive due west for 4 miles or due north for 6 miles. Otherwise reception is spotty or none. Our phones currently work best when we stand on our porch.

  @MustBGremlins Tried again this morning. Reset T-Mobile 5G home router, deleted and reloaded Kasa App and Alexa App, and checked connected devices on Kasa App. One needed for the group was not working. I have 15 additional TP-Link smart plugs and some were previously named at our recently sold home. Plugged a few in and found two that connected to Kasa. Renamed one to a new name, and it functioned properly. Checked the Alexa App and it didn't show up. Tried adding a new smart plug to Kasa and programmed it. It loaded onto the Kasa App and worked. Went back to Alexa, and it did not show up. Deleted the Alexa App and reloaded it. No luck since they the renamed Device and the new Device are not picked up on Alexa.

I do have Google Display and several of their basic pucks. Could try them. I looked at the Google Home app, and the devices show up, but, I apparently have not set up a group with Google Home. This might work better. Thoughts? Haven't used a Group before in Google, so this may be a new adventure.
