TP Link Smart plug not connecting

[droidntn]

I bought this smart plug and my Note 8 won't connect. My son's S6 connects and works fine on the same home network.
Anyone else have this plug or similar and use on your N8?
Or any thoughts on why this is happening?
Everything else connects and works fine on my phone.
Thanks.

I had that problem at 1st. TP Link only works on the 2.4 ghz band. NOT 5 ghz. Make sure you are on the same band. Not only just the same network. Also, if you are using a VPN, it will Not connect. (sucks)

RESOLVED: I finally fixed it. Not sure what exactly was the problem, but it must have been something to do with my setup. I added a new account, did the inital setup again and it works fine now.
