Your internet connection is crucial in ensuring a successful installation. elf only works with a 2.4 GHz connection, thus, during installation, you need to ensure that your smartphone is connected to the right network. My elf does not recognize my smartphone. The blue flashing light will be the best indication if your elf is ready to pair up with your smartphone. Once this is in place, you just need to follow the installation process prompted on the Eques elf app. Can I link my elf to several smartphones?
Yes, you can link to several smartphones as long as all smartphones are using the same login details. My elf does not recognize my Wi-Fi network. Check the quality of your Wi-Fi signal. Check the distance between your elf and the router. Adjust accordingly if the router is too far. Check if there are any objects (e.g. heavy metal) near your router that may interfere with the signal and move them accordingly. elf only works with 2.4 GHz (802.11g) Wi-Fi network. If you see a 5G suffix on your Wi-Fi network, you are more likely connecting to 5.0 GHz and will need to connect to 2.4 GHz to be able to successfully install. In case you are unsure what kind of network you have
(as in cases where you have modified the network name), you can try to connect first, observe what will happen, and change to other networks if needed. Will I be able to revert back to my 5.0 GHz network after installing my elf?
If your router is dual-band, turn off 5.0 GHz (or tap
"Forget" under your 5.0 GHz Wi-Fi network settings on your phone) then select 2.4 GHz. Once setup is successful, you may turn on the 5.0 GHz Wi-Fi network again and that will not have any negative impact on your elf's performance. Only 1 smartphone can connect with my elf. What could be the issue?
Please check the login details. All connected smartphones must use the same login details on the Eques elf app. On the Eques elf app, I can only see and control 3 out of the 10 elf units I have at home. Please ensure that the setup process for each of your elf units has been fully completed. Also, within the Eques elf app, go to "Me" and then tap "Upload configuration".

If this happens, this is more likely caused by intermittent issues with your internet connection at home. You may need to contact your service provider. Once your connection is back up, your elf will reconnect automatically and function as normal. My Amazon Alexa device can only discover 2 of my elf units out of 10 that I have. You will have to upload the configuration again within the Eques elf app, as it may have just executed partially when you did it earlier. Within the Eques elf app, go to "Me" and then tap "Upload configuration".
