Connection issue
Can't connect robot to the app. I tried to unplug then re-plug the robot then reinstall the app but connections was still unsuccessful. WiFi light on the robot is solid. This message appears after scanning/inputting the barcode.
"connection error, cannot communicate with the robot. Try again later."

Hi Patrik.
Edit: As Martin mention below start by restarting the robot.
Is it the same behavior if you are connected with your smartphone to the same WiFi as the robot?
Please try and redo the installation setup for the robot(onboarding process) and make sure to keep the robot upside down during the full setup.
Let us know if this solves it.Best Regards

Before trying the onboarding again try a restart of the robot.
Long press play until you see OFF in the display. Insert in the charger to restart.
Please let us know how it goes
I have lost the connection after i changed my router. I tried to reinstall the software and connection but got stucked at wifi setting page. Any way to reset the purei9 software to factory settings?
I've got the same issue. I would like to be able to reset the purei9 to its factory default and also remove the robot from my cloud account so I can add it again.
What are our options? The robot refuses to connect to wifi and the wifi flicks on and off. The rest of the house is fully connected to the router with no issues
Edit: fixed!!! Disabled 5GHz and ran setup again. Worked like a charm!!!
Huawei p9 plus cannot connect to robot.
Is it phone issue?
Hi Noi,
It should not be a phone issue.
What is the symptom, where in the onboarding process does it fail?
Hi i have issue with my bot, my bot seems to be not able to connect to wifi. i try to restart and redo the setup but i can't connect to the bots wifi, how can i connect ?
@nick, you mean your phone cannot connect to the robot during the onboarding process?
When you turn the robot upside down, does it show "hots" on its display?
Hi everyone,
I have a similar problem: my cell phone can't connect to the robot. Home WiFi is enabled at only 2.4Ghz and I even turned mobile data off. After trying for 3-4 times my phone says can't connect with network.
What should I do?
btw. when turned upside down the robot's display shows "hots"
@Rody, does your phone list the "3DVision..." network but cannot connect, or does not even list it?
Can you collect the logs per https://community.purei9.com/discussion/260/collecting-debug-information-for-troubleshooting#latest?
Hi!
just baught the Pure i9.2 and cannot connect the robot to my wifi. It gets kicked out in the last step.
im going crazy over this. What could be wrong?
I have changed my WiFi settings, splitting up the 5 and 2,4 ghz.
i have restarted everything that can be restarted. And I am sitting next to my router with the robot to make sure it has a good connection.
please help out. :)

Hi,
Please collect the logs as per this post: https://community.purei9.com/discussion/260/collecting-debug-information-for-troubleshooting
Attach them to a post here. Preferably collect them just after trying the on-boarding.
Similar problems here. Updated my router firmware today, after the router rebooted, every other device is my household reconnected without any problems whatsoever, except 1, the Pure i9 It shows a flashing wifi symbol. Have powered it down and back up again, but it's not having any of it. It refuses to connect.
Why is this process so painful? why do I need to onboard my robot each time my network resets? The robot isn't even connected to my router, it doesn't even get it's IP address from it (the mesh wifi does all that). Everything else connected to the mesh is fine. For some reason the robot isn't happy.
Please fix this nonsense,
In the end I had to reset my robot, and as a result lost all my room training, so have to start again.
When the next firmware arrive, no doh t that will junk all the training also.
@VimFuago, the next release will have connectivity fixes, making it much better at reconnecting.
Normally rebooting the robot should solve everything, though, making me a bit worried about your situation. Could you collect the logs just after reproducing the error?
When will the new release happen? I’m also in this situation with a new modem that has a new password. No connection to my phone. Have tried resetting without success.
So when is the next update?
Also how will I get new updates if cannot connect to wifi?
If you have a new modem and a new password, I presume you mean that the wifi password (and possibly the SSID, or network name) are changed. In that case you need to onboard the robot again. Select "setup new robot" in the app, and then set up your robot again, giving it the same name as before. This may not be the most intuitively obvious thing to do, so we are working on improving this in the app.
Thank you this worked😀😊.
I was trying to set up again by giving it a new name.
After changing the router and connecting the device "as new", the vacuum cleaner connects to the Internet (and is visible in the router settings) but is not detected in the application on the phone.
Deleting the account and connecting the vacuum cleaner to a new account does not solve the problem.
I am sure that the problem is on your side and I am sure that a thing worth 400 euros should not behave like this
@Sergei, which application were you using? Wellbeing or Pure i?
What happens if you turn the robot up-side-down and back again? This should re-init the connection to the cloud. Does it help? You can also try restarting the robot by holding the Play button for 4-5 s (if you have the Pure i9, it will display "Off"), and then putting it in the charger after 20-30 s.
@raahlb ,
I have flipped and reconnected the vacuum cleaner many times. This does not solve the problem.
And I have used both apps. I even returned the old router. It does not help. Solve the problem with your servers.
@Sergei , can you collect the logs per this post?
https://community.purei9.com/discussion/260/collecting-debug-information-for-troubleshooting#latest
@raahlb , done
I can see that the robot connects to the wifi, and then it waits for the phone App to connect to it to continue the process, which does not happen.
Two questions:
>Is the home wifi a regular wifi network, not a guest network?
yes
>Is the phone also connected to the same wifi network, so it will use it after the robot's hotspot wifi is gone? This is required.
yes
Used 3 different phones, Android and iOS
To clarify - you also tried switching back to the old router and on-boarding to it?
EDIT: Did the app give any error messages during the on-boarding?
Yes, I also did all this with an old router
wifi password is correct
