Same problem here, but setup failed. Activated Bridge today, inserted beta invite code. Selected floors/ rooms etc. When it started updating it failed after 15 seconds and is now showing “Homey Bridge Not Connected”. It´s on fw 21, and I can see all specs, ip and so on. It is also responding to me deactivating the ring, so it looks like it is somewhat working. But it still looks like it´s offline. Is there a FW force upgrade/ reset and that still will work with the invite code? ---

My bridge goes offline once I a several days. If I restart the bridge will reconnect (take the power off en connect). Note: my bridge was completely installed. ---

Please switch off your 5Ghz WiFi for a short time. Register the bridge. Activate your 5 Ghz WiFi again. ---

Hi All, Just received bridge and get stuck on “unable to connect”. Did not work on two Android phones (Pixel 6 and Oneplus 5T), even after shutting down 5GHz on WiFi. Started working **only after** I shut down 5GHz WiFi and tried from iOS device. Now Homey Bridge is visible in the app. Clearly it’s not an option for people who don’t have any device with iOS but maybe it’s going to help someone. Cheers.
