I am trying to hook up a Gosund smart plug to use with my Amazon Dot (Alexa)

I cannot get it to work.
It tells me I need to use it with a 2.4 GHz.

On my modem/router the 2.4 GHz light is blinking and the 5GHz light is solid.

Does that mean that it is working on the 5 GHz?

If so how do I get it to work on the 2.4 GHz?

  • blinking usually means traffic is being transmitted. Meaning its working. 

    Make sure your phone/tablet is on 2.4ghz during setup. With these cheaper IoT device, they need to be on the same wifi as the device being setup.
