google home does not recognize the smart plugs

2021-03-07 05:31:55

I use the Kasa mini smart plugs for my lights. They have worked with my google home for over a year. Now all of a sudden they are not being recognized. I have reset them all and reset the google home and sometimes it will turn on a light by voice but says it is not link to turn it off. Sometimes the light that worked 10 minutes ago all of a sudden is not linked but later it will be. it's driving me crazy

Open the Kasa app, tap on the plug, then go to device info, and tap on the connected Wi-Fi network. Look at the signal strength to see what it reports. You generally want a strength of -40 to -60 dBm, anything higher may be causing momentary Wi-Fi drops.

If the issue tends to happen throughout the day, you can also put the plug in the same room of the router just to test that.
