Hi everyone, I’ve been experiencing some connectivity issues with my SmartThings setup, and I wanted to share my experiences and see if anyone else has encountered similar problems or has some solutions to offer.
First, I’ve noticed that my devices occasionally lose connectivity with the SmartThings server. This happens randomly, and I get a pop-up message telling me to reconnect. While reconnecting only takes about 15 seconds, it’s still a bit frustrating, especially when I rely on my smart home setup for daily tasks. I’ve searched through older posts and forums, but it seems like this issue has been discussed extensively without a clear resolution. Has anyone else faced this problem recently, or have you found a workaround?
Another issue I’ve come across is with my outdoor cameras. I put one of them in sleep mode for about four hours, and when I tried to wake it up, it didn’t return to normal. The live view wasn’t working, and I wasn’t receiving any notifications. All the sensor readings were still there, but it felt like the camera was offline. I’ve tried resetting it and checking the Wi-Fi connection, but nothing seems to work. If anyone has dealt with this before, I’d love to hear how you resolved it!
On a more positive note, I’ve recently discovered a great deal on Ecobee 3 sensors at Walmart. They were priced at $40 per pair, which is a significant discount from the online price of $79. If you’re in the Rockford-Chicago, IL area, I’d recommend checking out the Walmart app to see if this deal is still available in your area. It’s always exciting to find good deals on smart home devices!
Lastly, I’ve been exploring the integration of my Wyze Floodlight Pro with Google Assistant. While I’ve managed to set it up successfully, I’m curious if others have had similar experiences or if there are any tips for optimizing its performance. The ability to control my floodlights through voice commands has been a game-changer for my home security.
If anyone has insights, solutions, or experiences related to these topics, I’d be grateful for your input. Let’s keep the discussion going and help each other troubleshoot and improve our smart home setups!
