Installed several Tapo S500 switches and all but two (8 out of 10) installed correctly. The last two, though, fail to show up in the "other networks". I've reset both so they're flashing orange / blue but still won't show up. I've rebooted everything, tripped the breaker just in case and cussed. Help.

To clarify the issue you’re encountering: Are you not seeing the default setup Wi‑Fi for these two switches, or when you try to connect them to your router, is your own Wi‑Fi network missing from the list (and can you see other networks available)?

 

Here is a troubleshooting guide for the configuration failure issue, hope it helps. What should I do if I fail to configure the Tapo devices
