When your vacuum is acting up, it could be because of issues with your wifi. It might struggle due to a weak connection, Shark Robot connectivity settings update. Your device might need a signal on a different frequency for better performance.
Sometimes, the software on your router needs to be updated. Forgetting to update it means your network could become vulnerable to harmful elements like malware and viruses. Regular updates help keep your internet environment secure.
If your Shark Robot vacuum has trouble joining the network, it could lose the signal. This might happen if the router is in a poorly covered area (a dead zone) or an obstacle blocking the signal, hindering seamless connectivity.
A potential challenge in connecting to a different wifi network on any device is entering the password incorrectly. Since connecting to a new network with your Shark vacuum involves several steps, getting it right on the first attempt is beneficial.
It would help if you also reconfigured your vacuum so it can map out your new house. In this case, a reset is going to be your top option. How to reset your Shark vacuum and connect it to your new wifi.

With the help of Wyze Support, I got it to work. Thanks, Gene! In following his direction, the only thing I changed was turn on Precision Location on Wyze app and have vac attached to the charging station.
I finally figured out that my network password and Wi-Fi password both had special characters in them. Once I changed my network and Wi-Fi passwords using only letters and numbers, mine connected the 1st try.
Hope it works for you
Steps to fix:
connect to 2G network
get vacuum to be in pairing mode when both lights are blinking white
on the app, attempt to pair and give credentials for your 2g network
when the white lights are both solid, manually reconnect to the 2g wifi you gave to the robot
you will then be connected.
Recently I set-up a T-Mobile 5G Home Internet and am discovering that not all my devices can connect. My Shark IQ Robot vacuum is one device that will not connect to 5G, it says it can only connect to 2.4G. Does anyone have an idea how I can get this to work?
Both Nokia (cylinder) and Arcadyn (cube) default to 5 and 2.4G sharing the same SSID. You can log into the web interface 192.168.12.1 and select separate SSID for each and that will allow you to use different SSIDs and passphrase. After you do that, if your 2.4G device requires an app from your phone or laptop to setup wifi, then you have to make sure your phone/laptop is on the same 2.4G wifi. Once setup is completed, you can set your phone/laptop back to 5G.
This needs to be documented by T-mobile. I have the same issue with some devices that accept 2.4G only. Went through and created a second SSID (see Katiejo123 above).
Went to 192.168.12.1 as mentioned by Cat Call but there is no sign-in link and cannot do anything.
According to sources 2.4G works best on channels 1, 6 and 11. T-mobile assigned the new SSID to channel 4.
The issue of connecting 2.4G devices needs to be resolved. If I attache a separate router that has 5G and 2.4G, to the device I can then connect my 2.4G devices. BUT this should not be the case.
I Just got a 5G gateway (black tower model FAST 5688W), my eufy cams are not connecting to the 2.4ghz, but other devices can connect well (printers, tablets, tv, etc). I have tried with the default 5ghz/2.4ghz, also with single 2.4ghz and any combination of WPA/WPA2/WPA3 with no success. I also deleted all devices from my app and deleted cache in the cell phone. Does anybody know if eufy is not compatible with this type of gateway?
I always recommend leaving the default network alone and using it when possible. (You can change the SSID and password.) The default network automatically selects either 2.4 or 5 GHz for the connected devices, and uses the highest current level of security WPA2/WPA3.
We got a Shark Ion Robot for Christmas and have been trying to hook it up to our Wi-Fi for days now and evey time it says that "it can not connect to the cloud"....? Called Shark Tech who gave us to the Engineer, who was very helpfull but still could not get it to connect, the error code it was throwing on his end was that the Orbi wouldnt let the vacuum through the firewall. He suggested we call netgear. First call through the guy had me un hook my phone to wifi and then back again and said ok thank you have a great day......!?! called back got a lady who had me try to change my networks name to see if that did anything after I stated several times that I had other device that connected just fine, She then tells me I will have to call the vacuum company. !!!!!?!? So now I am here. HELP!!!
Modern houses with multiple rooms may have spotty WiFi when it comes from a modem/router located near where the internet cable enters the house. So next-gen WiFi is available, which uses multiple Access Points (network-connected devices that transmit and receive a WiFi signal evenly throughout the house. Imagine an open umbrella representing each Access Point (AP)). These could be called mesh networks, range extenders, satellites or even sentinels. Google WiFi, Linksys Velop, Netgear Orbi are examples. Such systems are designed to allow fast roaming between Access Points when highly mobile devices like laptops, iPhones and iPads move with the users. A new term, BSSID identifies Access Points and the attached devices called clients
Alternatively, delete the shark robot vacuum from the shark app and set it up afresh on the new network. Here is how to delete your shark vacuum on the app; Tap the Menu icon > Go to settings > select your shark robot > select Delete Robot.
The shark robot will begin the factory resetting, and can take a few minutes. Once done, the shark robot vacuum will be restored to its default settings with all data removed. The robot will also be removed from the app, and you have to reset your robot.
I just bought few smart plugs. But they only connect to 2.4 Ghz. How do i add them to my home network as they will not show up in App on my phone for a setup. I have a good coverage in my house so most of the time phone is on 5Ghz.
While the smartphone apps for many (most?) Internet of Things (IoT) devices are able to deal with "mesh" WiFi networks, there are some which are poorly written and simply fail to work when the smartphone is connected at 5G. What has worked for many people (including me) is this:
p.s. "Poorly written" may seem harsh, but GEEZ. My TP-Link, Belkin, Eufy, Teckin (and other) smart plugs connected immediately. I have only had one that required the above steps. For one plug, I simply ignored the warnings "MUST connect to w.4G" and kept hitting "Continue" until it worked. "TAKE THAT!", I said.
