Switching your Gosund smart home devices to a new Wi-Fi network? This guide walks you through the process step-by-step, ensuring a smooth transition. We'll cover both adding new devices to a new network and changing the network of already connected devices.

Adding New Gosund Devices to a Different Network

This is the simplest scenario. When setting up a new Gosund device, you'll be prompted to select your Wi-Fi network during the initial setup process.

Steps:

1. Download the Gosund App: If you haven't already, download the Gosund app from the Google Play Store (Android) or the Apple App Store (iOS).

2. Power On Your Device: Plug in your new Gosund device and ensure it's powered on.

3. Open the App and Add Device: Open the Gosund app and follow the on-screen prompts to add a new device. The app will guide you through the process of connecting it to your Wi-Fi network.

4. Select Your New Network: During the setup process, you'll be asked to choose your Wi-Fi network. Select the correct network from the list and enter your Wi-Fi password.

5. Complete the Setup: The app will then connect your device to your network. This usually takes a few moments. Once complete, you can control your new device through the app.

Important Note: Ensure your phone is connected to the same Wi-Fi network you are adding the device to. This is crucial for successful pairing.

Changing the Network of Existing Gosund Devices

This process requires removing the device from its current network and then adding it to the new one, essentially repeating the initial setup. This is because Gosund devices, like many smart home devices, don't directly support network switching.

Steps:

1. Open the Gosund App: Launch the Gosund app on your smartphone or tablet.

2. Locate the Device: Find the Gosund device you wish to move to a new network.

3. Remove the Device: This step varies slightly depending on the Gosund app version. Usually, you'll find an option to remove, delete, or unpair the device. Look for a gear icon (settings) associated with the device and look for a removal option. There might also be a menu option within the device settings.

4. Reset the Device: After removing the device from the app, you'll likely need to reset the device itself. The method for resetting varies depending on the specific Gosund device model. Consult your device's manual to find out how to perform a factory reset. This usually involves holding down a button for a certain amount of time.

5. Add the Device to the New Network: Now, you'll essentially repeat the process described in the section above: Add a new device, select your new Wi-Fi network, enter your password, and complete the setup process.

Troubleshooting Tips

• Check your Wi-Fi password: Ensure you are entering the correct password for your new network. Incorrect passwords are a frequent cause of connection problems.

• Router Interference: If you're still having issues, it could be due to interference from other devices or a weak Wi-Fi signal. Try moving closer to your router or restarting your router and modem.

• App Issues: Make sure you have the latest version of the Gosund app installed. An outdated app can cause compatibility problems.

• Device Problems: If the problem persists, there might be a malfunction with the device itself. Contact Gosund customer support for further assistance.

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully switch your Gosund devices to a new Wi-Fi network. Remember to consult your device’s manual for specific instructions, as different Gosund models may have slightly different procedures.
