So got one of these multi colour smart bulbs and an alexa device.
It requires first connecting it using their app (which for some reason wants my location and had to register an internet account).
The app seems outdated, it considers a fast flash twice a second, and slow once every 2 seconds. This confused me and took me a while to figure out, my bulb actually slow flashes every 6 seconds and fast every 2 seconds.
In addition to switch modes, I have to turn on/off rapidly, not slowly like the apps says.
But onto the problem, it is 2.4ghz only, so had to connect phone to 2.4ghz to set this up, and then it simply cannot connect. I expect its looking for very basic, very old connectivity as I suspect its very outdated, my 2.4ghz wifi point does not enforce management frame protection, 802.11r disabled, KRACK protection off, and it still cannot connect.
I tried AP mode, and I can connect my phone to the access point on the bulb, but the app doesnt detect I have connected and as such I cannot proceed with the setup.
Any ideas?
