Please help, this is super frustrating. I have purchased the WeMo LED starter kit, a WeMo light switch, and two Cree, and one Osram wifi LED bulbs. The two wemo bulbs seem to be working just fine, and so it the light switch (although it seems to prefer a 3/4G connection for remote control vs WiFi - but I'm good with that for now).
I've become proficient at doing the manual reset on both the cree bulbs, and the Osram. I use the "add new WeMo devices" and enter the scanning/discovery mode.
They show up! They are connected, and I can tap the green check mark to make them turn off and on, confirming they are being controlled by the WeMo app.
When I tap "Add" to add them, they up and disappear! Nowhere to be seen again until I reset them and scan for them again. They simply will not show up in the device list. I've tried one at a time, also tried resetting all the bulbs (5) and trying all at once....only the two WeMo bulbs show up after discovery.
Tried unplugging the bulbs for 20 sec, turning off for 2 sec, restarting app, reloading app, resetting link, power cycling router. ...no luck.
Do I need to look towards my router settings? I'm on "auto" for port, and 20/40
I have been thinking that if the two wemo bulbs are working fine, AND the cree/osrams are seen, and even controlled in the scanning, that all should be good, right?
So now Im hoping this message even posts because I've tried setting my router port to 11, and it doesn't want to go back to auto, and my internet is now nearly frozen. Might have to do a facort reset on the oruter now. Did i mention this was frustrating?
Many thanks ahed of time for any helpful info!
