Setting up smart plug

[#1]

OK, doesn't really answer my question, but as I don't use smart plugs, I'll bow out and leave this to @Dan_the_Van

Well, I have been successful, I don't knowhow, 

Rightly or not, I put phone on airplane mode, turned on Wi-Fi, 

I didn't turnoff 5ghz, 

Setup using slow blink,

In wi fi I saw the plug and tapped on it and, it came up connected but no access to Internet, long pressed the blue flashing switch on the plug and hey presto, connected

What the heck I done, I don't know, just fiddling about.... both are up and running. 

Not confident I'll be successful next time.

The help page from Teckin sort of suggests the setup device also needs to be on 2.4GHz rather than 5GHz so maybe the phone connected on 2.4GHz when coming out of airplane mode, the important thing it's now working.

Sorry for the late reply I was out most of yesterday

Dan,

I had them boxed up ready to send back, but, I thought, no, I'll persevere, so I unboxed and had another go, glad I did. 

thanks for your interest and helping me out.
