Why do Wi-Fi light bulbs lose their names after replacing my router?
Our answer
Reuse the old SSID/password or reconnect bulbs and rename them in a saved smart-home configuration.
Why this approach makes sense
Device software, permissions and connected services change how a feature behaves; use settings for the actual model rather than a generic workaround.
Before you try it
Verify the relevant device and account permissions, and make changes one at a time.
