It’s a bit vague to be able to assist you in general like this. Back when I originally installed my Homey I also had a lot of issues getting it to work. In the end it didn’t play nice with my own DNS-server. Do you have something special in your home network in regards to DNS (maybe a pihole or something?).

The Setup wizard at [http://setup.athom.com](http://setup.athom.com) guides you thru connecting your Homey to your WiFi.  
If that is finished afaik there is no other installation wizard. just log on to [https://my.athom.com/#/](https://my.athom.com/#/) and forget about the Desktop App. just use the Chrome browser and ignore the warning.!

Just Start exploring.

Thanks a lot!

The Homey is connected to the WIFI and I see the homey in my desktop app. Only now comes the following… I open the desktop app and need to select my account, it says Hello Roy! when i click on the homey it ask again to select an account. I select the same account and after this a pop up comes up and says unauthorized…

Any suggestions for this?

Yep. Forget the desktop app and use the Chrome browser like @Dijker mentioned.

Looks like it is setup before, use the reset, use the Alt in step 4 and don’t connect an Athom account.  
[https://www.athom.com/nl/support/KB000026/](https://www.athom.com/nl/support/KB000026/)  
After that, start it again and connect WiFi and your account.

Now need to figure out how to communicate with Homey 🙂
