If you are attempting to pair the Purezone to your Wi-Fi network and see the error message, "Connection failed.  Connection to Wi-Fi failed", this is an indication that one or more of these things is occurring.

You are entering the incorrect Wi-Fi password

  1. Verify the Wi-Fi password
  2. Use a Tablet or another phone
  3. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi
  4. Locate the Wi-Fi network and select "Forget network"
  5. Re-scan on the Tablet or phone for Wi-Fi networks
  6. Locate your Wi-Fi network and carefully enter the Wi-Fi password
  7. If you fail to authenticate, then you are entering the wrong password.
  8. Ask the network administrator for the correct Wi-Fi password
  9. Enter the correct Wi-Fi password and pair your Purezone.

Your Wi-Fi network router is located too far away from the Purezone

In order for your Purezone to maintain a good connection to your Wi-Fi network, it must be located within 25-30 feet of a Wi-Fi access point, Wi-Fi mesh network node or Wi-Fi router.

  1. Carefully remove the Purezone from the spa.  You may need to locate a towel or paper towels to dry off water from the sensor and cable.  
  2. Take the Purezone closer to the location of the house where the Wi-Fi network router is located. 
  3. In the app, go back to the step to where the app is looking for the Purezone using Bluetooth:  "Hold tight, we are looking for your Purezone device" 
  4. Once the App has found your device, the following message will appear "Good news!  We found your Purezone, please select below"
  5. Tap the name of the Purezone device which will appear as: X1X234 
  6. Scanning for Wi-Fi Networks will appear
  7. Note: If the message "Wi-Fi Scan Error - Please try again" appears, tap OK. Hit the back button until you reach the "Name your Spa" screen and try again
  8. At the Wi-Fi connection screen, under "Choose a Network", a list of the SSIDs of compatible 2.4Ghz Wi-Fi networks will appear. 
  9. Ensure that your Wi-Fi network name appears.  
  10. Tap on the network name and enter the password
  11. You should connect successfully.  
  12. Take the unit out to the location of the spa and place it in the spa
  13. The device should check in and perform it's first Measurement and report that information to the cloud
  14. If the device experiences issues connecting far away from the router, you will need to purchase a Wi-Fi Range extender.

NOTE:  If you have verified that you are entering the correct password and that you have good Wi-Fi signal where your Purezone is located but you still get the error "Connection failed.  Connection to Wi-Fi failed, please try again", reboot your phone and launch the Purezone App to start the process over again.  Rebooting the phone will reboot your phone's Wi-Fi and Bluetooth settings

 

Your Network Administrator has port blocking enabled on your Wi-Fi network router

Your router's internal Network Security settings or anti-virus software is blocking the Purezone

  1. This occurs rarely, but when it does, Network Security software or advanced Network security settings enabled in the router are blocking the Purezone's connection attempt.
  2. Refer to this article for more information:  Connection Failed - Router Network Security
