Meural Canvas II MC327 issues connecting to wifi
As stated above, I have a Meural Canvas II MC327. It simply does not connect to wifi. Within the app it just shows "Offline" or that I need to restart WiFi. It's been a while since I've had this d...
Hello oguser,
Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!
I understand that you are having difficulties connecting your Meural Canvas to your Wi-Fi.
Please follow the steps below to resolve this issue:
- Open Meural app
- Navigate to settings
- Canvas Settings
- Remove Canvas From Account
- Then add the Meural Canvas back to your account. (This process will have you connect to the Meural Canvas Wi-Fi. Once connected follow the rest of the walkthrough. If you get an error message stating that you have been disconnected and have the options "Try again and "Continue", navigate to the Wi-Fi you designated for your Meural canvas in your Wi-Fi settings then connect to it. After connecting to the same Wi-Fi your Meural Canvas is connected to switch back to the app and press "Continue".)
- At this time your Meural Canvas will sync and enable you to control it via meural app through Wi-Fi.

Thanks for the reply.
I've tried your process multiple times. The error message I get now after hitting "Continue" is that it tells me my Canvas is offline and I need to restart the WiFi service. I follow the steps to restart the service on my canvas and try again, unfortunately, I'm not sure what I can do at this point. I've already done a hard reset on the canvas itself so I've lost whatever collections I put together.
Would still like further assistance because this hasn't been solved. Thank you.
Hello oguser,
Thank you for your post!
When you get the error message that your canvas is offline, navigate to your Wi-Fi settings on your mobile device. Then connect your mobile device to the Wi-Fi network that you connected to your Meural Canvas. Now, navigate back to your app and press continue.

Hey KevinLiT
Thanks for the response. It still didn't remedy the situation. I've tried it multiple times. It tries to sync and then it just tells me it's offline.
Feels like an endless cycle of restarting the wifi, removing the canvas, adding the canvas back on, trying to get the wifi to work again. It's a bit frustrating as I don't know what else to do after following your instructions.
I've also done a hard reset on the canvas. Still nothing.Hello oguser,

I am having the same problem.
I did however set the canvas up on the home wi-fi and now I have taken it to work.
Do I need to setup the wi-fi on the actual canvas again so i can connect to my phone and if so how do I do that?
The gesture prompts are also so frustrating, as it rarely picked up my hand movements 😞
