The device keeps disconnecting. It’s been less than a day and it’s already disconnected again. It didn’t happen before, but now it keeps disconnecting. What’s the reason?
@pei11 I’m sorry to hear your S1E is disconnecting frequently. Let’s check possible reasons based on common scenarios with this device:
- Software versions: Ensure both the S1E Switch and the Aqara Home app are updated to the latest versions. Outdated software can sometimes cause connectivity issues .
- Power supply: Verify the S1E’s power supply is stable and the device screen is lit. A weak or unstable power connection might lead to disconnections .
- Physical installation: Try removing and reinstalling the S1E panel to ensure it’s properly seated, which can resolve temporary connection glitches .
- Wi-Fi network status: Connect your phone to the same Wi-Fi network as the hub and check if the internet works normally. If not, the Wi-Fi itself might be unstable, affecting the device .
- Distance from router: If the S1E is too far from the router, signal strength could be weak. Try placing it 1-2 meters from the router with fewer obstacles in between .
- Router load: If your router has too many connected Wi-Fi devices, it might struggle to maintain stable connections. Reducing the number of connected devices or upgrading to a more powerful router could help .
Have you noticed any patterns, like disconnections happening at specific times? Trying these steps might help identify the cause. Feel free to share if you find what works—community insights can help others too!
