brennenstuhl®Connect FAQs

Router with WLAN 2.4 and 5 GHz
To set up the WiFi products, the WiFi product and the mobile device must be in the 2.4 GHz network. We recommend switching off the 5 GHz network during installation, as the mobile device cannot connect to the WiFi product if the smartphone is in the 5 GHz network. The brennenstuhl®Connect WiFi products work with a 2.4 GHz WiFi module and can therefore only be registered with 2.4 GHz networks.

If several routers, a repeater or guest WLAN are in use, to which the smartphone can connect automatically, it is important to make sure that the smartphone is in the same WLAN network as the WLAN information entered in the brennenstuhl®Connect App. Only then can the WiFi product be taught to the router.

Depending on the type of smartphone, your device has the function that mobile data is automatically used again in case of bad WLAN connections or no Internet. Check the display of your device to see if the WLAN symbol is shown or if mobile data such as LTE, 3G, H, H+ are used.

If the smartphone is connected to the WLAN, a WLAN symbol appears in the display. Only then can the WiFi products be trained in the same WLAN network.

Alternatively, you can disable the option "Automatically use mobile data in case of bad WLAN" on your device until the WiFi product is set up.
