Whole Home WiFi Setup - Just Moved House

Go to solution

I've just moved into a new property where the previous owner had a BT Whole Home WiFi Mesh network, which she has left.  It's a 3 disc pack but of course we've changed the Broadband coming into the property and now I'm struggling to set up the BT Whole Home WiFi network.

Using the disc previously connected to the broadband router, I cannot get past a purple LED.  The app isn't asking me to update firmware - it's simply offering the "Go To Settings" screen which should take me to find the mesh network once it's being broadcast.

I have tried connecting each of the other two discs in turn to the router, and while their LED also remains purple, they do at least broadcast a WiFi network SSID, but I'm unable to successfully connect to that network (although no error message is displayed on the device from which I'm trying to connect - it simply tries, fails, tries again etc. etc.)

I have powered off/on the disc numerous times and have attempted to factory reset it several times too.  Thinking it might be a firmware issue I left it on and connected to my router overnight but that appears to have made no difference.

Any assistance would be fantastic and apologies in advance if I've missed something completely obvious

Its often something simple, especially when nothing seem to work.
