Hardware Questions and Recommendations

Trying to connect a smart kettle on Smartlife app. I have tried both EZ and slow connection - no loy. On the "Slow connection, I get the slow blink but also a message - "Smartlife connected - but no internet."
I have virgin media. Other smart devices connected (3 in total) Have no idea how to fix this, can anyone help please?

Which router are you using? Which version of OpenWrt is installed? How is it configured?

I use SmartLife app too and I solved my issues disabling WMM (802.11e) support setting option wmm '0' during the pairing in /etc/config/wireless (you'd bettere reenabling it after pairing cause disabling it reduces the performaces).
Hope this will help.

Regards.

I have Smartlife plugs which use the 2.5MHz radio, WMM must remain disabled on the 2.5MHz Radio for them to function properly.
Using OpenWrt 19.07.6 / Luci there is a checkbox to easily disable/enable WMM.
This is located in Network-Wireless and Edit your 2.5Mhz radio.
Save the Radio configuration change.
ALSO Save & Apply at the bottom of the Wireless page.
