Connecting your Eufy RoboVac to new WiFi can be a simple task if you follow the right steps. Whether you’re switching to a different network or setting up for the first time, ensuring that your vacuum is connected to WiFi will allow you to control it via the EufyHome app efficiently. This guide will walk you through each step to successfully connect your Eufy vacuum to your new WiFi network.

Why Won’t My Eufy Vacuum Connect to WiFi?

There can be several reasons why your Eufy vacuum isn’t connecting to WiFi. First, ensure your router is working correctly and broadcasting a 2.4GHz network. Eufy vacuums do not support 5GHz networks, which could be the primary reason for connection issues.

Interference from other electronic devices or physical obstructions can also disrupt WiFi signals. Check that you have entered the correct WiFi password and that your network has sufficient bandwidth to support additional devices. Finally, review if your Eufy RoboVac’s firmware is up-to-date as outdated firmware might be incompatible with newer WiFi settings.

How to Connect Eufy Vacuum to New WiFi Step-by-Step

Step 1: Prepare Your Eufy Vacuum
Ensure that the vacuum is charged and turned on. Press the power button to wake the device. Make sure it’s in an area with a strong WiFi signal. Keep your smartphone and router within close proximity for a smooth setup.

Step 2: Reset the WiFi Connection
Press and hold the WiFi reset button on your Eufy vacuum for about 10 seconds. This button is typically found on the side or under the dustbin cover. Release the button when you hear a beep sound or see the WiFi indicator light flashing.

Step 3: Open the EufyHome App
Launch the EufyHome app on your smartphone. If you haven’t already, download it from the App Store or Google Play. Sign in with your account credentials or create a new account if you’re a first-time user.

Step 4: Add Device in App
In the EufyHome app, tap on the “+” icon to add a new device. Select your model from the list provided. Follow the on-screen instructions to ensure your device is in pairing mode and ready to connect.

Step 5: Connect to New WiFi
Choose your new WiFi network from the list within the app and enter the password. Ensure that it’s a 2.4GHz network. The app will attempt to connect your Eufy vacuum to this network. Once the connection is successful, you’ll receive a confirmation message.

What to Do If Your Eufy Vacuum Still Won’t Connect?

If your Eufy vacuum still won’t connect, ensure you’re using a 2.4GHz network. Repeatedly check the WiFi password, reset the network settings on your vacuum, and try the setup process again. Reboot your router and phone to clear any temporary issues. If problems persist, contact Eufy customer support for further assistance.
