Openbeken: Difficulties connecting Tuya smart plug to WiFi network

Hi, I have the openbeken software on my tuya devices, but connecting to the network is really poorly solved. When I turned off the smart plug and turned it on it doesn't connect to the network, and I have to put it in and take it out several times to get it to connect. What is the reason for this?

Hello, how close is the device to the router? With me OpenBeken connects to the WiFi network in a few seconds, in the case of setting a static IP on the device it is even faster.

Does the problem occur on several devices, or only on one?

What exact device do you have?

Inserting and deactivating the plug in the OBK several times, or more precisely five times, in short intervals (a few seconds) starts safe mode, i.e. AP mode. Do you mean creating an AP or connecting to your WiFi?

When you have the device already connected to the router, and you open the logo tab in the Web App, and on the second browser tab you do a reboot for it in the main panel, how quickly does the device reboot and connect to WiFi?

Hi, I have 2 garage door controllers which are very close to the router (1 - 4m, 2 - 7/8m) so very close and you yourself probably know that a 2.4GHZ network has a good range if there are no walls. And the rest of the devices, i.e. smartplugs, I have connected to the router which I use as an access point in the workshop, and the smartplugs are plugged in about 3/5m from the router. So there shouldn't be a problem either. Smartplugs I have such

With the installation I had no problem everything went like a flash.

I will set a static ip and see the improvement.

When it comes to these several times inserting and deactivating it means that as I have a garage door, if I turned off the electricity and turned it on after a minute, the device did not want to connect to the network and then turned off the electricity in one of the gates I did so with 3 times with such average intervals for example 10 seconds then in there 2/3 time caught and the device connected to the network.

With smartplugs I have very similar. Those which are connected to the other router, the one which forms the access point.

1 smartplug which is very close to the router literally 20cm which is always but always on still shows all parameters. And it does not disconnect.

2 smartplug which is about 2 metres from the router when I had it connected to the same power supply as the first smartplug after about 10 hours it switched off and disconnected and I had to unplug it and plug it in to connect to the network again.

So let's first try to set a fixed ip of the device yes?

I'm afraid a static IP here won't improve the situation much, there's something else wrong here...

This absolutely can't be connecting that long.

Maybe let's check one thing first. Can you post screenshots from each panel of the device, where the MAC address is?

I wonder if maybe you didn't remove the RF partition with calibration and at the same time also removed the MAC addresses...

Or show a screenshot from the DHCP tab, what MACs do the Beeches have at your place?

Can we make an arrangement so that if I continue to have a problem we will check it further? Because I set a static ip on all the devices and rebooted them and they connected straight away. I even switched one smartplug off and on after a while and surprisingly it connected very quickly.

Hmm ok, but check those MACs anyway, if your MAC addresses end in zeros, that means you've cleared the RF partition for yourself.

None of the devices have 00 at the end. Is that a good thing yes?

This is rather good. It is also worth noting whether the MAC addresses are repeated
