Disconnection Problems?
I'm considering a Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Plug Slim. I had two SmartBar plugs from VOCOlinc but they were CONSTANTLY disconnecting from Wi-Fi and had to be unplugged from the outlet and plugged back in to reset them. That was a hassle since one of them was behind a dresser. When they were connected, they worked reliably. I would still be using them if they could solve the problem of them dropping offline so frequently.
I'm debating between a Wemo smart plug and a Kasa. But before deciding and purchasing, I thought I'd better ask if I will run into the same problem. I have a strong Wi-Fi connection, tweaked my router so that both plugs were on Channel 11. Nothing solved the problem. What kind of track record do the Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Plug Slim's have in that regard? None of my other smart home devices have ever had this problem, so it seems to be with the plugs themselves, not my Wi-Fi signal strength, etc. Thanks
