Thanks for the advice. I have used the same SSID name and other devices on the network (iPads, Sonos) automatically connected. I had to reconnect a Ring device but that worked without a problem.

As for contacting Big Ass Fans (BAF), I tried that too but they came back with a proforma response that was completely useless (thanks for nothing BAF!). I have a feeling we'll be stuck with using the remote controls for the fans. Oh well, I suppose it's a first world problem.

Is your network SSID hidden?
In my environment, the Haiku fans only connected when the network SSID is being broadcast.
