by Alexa Helplines Alexa Helpline

Alexa? Isn't this name quite interesting? Well! Let me tell you what Alexa is? Have you heard of Siri? O Yess!! You have heard of Siri that is a female voice assistant available in I-phones. What does Siri do? You might be familiar with this as well. Just say, "Siri open music player for me”. In no seconds your music player would be opened. Similarly, Alexa is the voice assistant for the Amazon products.

For example Amazon Echo. It has been enabled with Alexa. All you need to do is command Alexa, "Alexa update me with the latest news".Alexa would narrate the important news for you. It has so brilliant features i.e smart home and digital assistant facilities. You can browse the web, get weather updates, do online shopping and much more simply by giving a command.

Isn't it really amazing???

Well!! Let me tell you Alexa is only functional with a proper and a strong wi-fi connection. It's quite ravishing but sometimes it may be faulty as well. You may face the error while you connect Alexa to Wi-Fi. No wi-fi means Alexa not working.

WHAT TO DO IF ALEXA NOT WORKING?

Alexa won’t connect to wi-fi? Here are a few troubleshooting steps that would help your virtual assistant to be online.

  1. RESTART YOUR ROUTER AND MODEM

Before you blame Alexa, you need to restart your router and modem. You need to reboot both of the devices i.e router and modem and then again try to connect Alexa to wifi.

  1. RESTART YOUR ALEXA DEVICE

You have restarted your router and modem! Now try restarting the Alexa enabled device once so as to fix this connectivity issue.

  1. CONFIRM WI-FI PASSWORD

You need to be sure that your wi-fi password is correct. It may be possible that you are entering an incorrect wi-fi password. If it is correct even then it shows an incorrect password there might be some other issue. Try to connect a different device with the same network and use the same password that you were using on your Alexa device. If you see the wi-fi network and still you are not able to connect, there might be a possibility that your password is incorrect.

  1. MOVE YOUR DEVICE CLOSER TO ROUTER

Your router may be too away from the Alexa device. Make sure that your Alexa enabled device is within the range of the router so that they can connect.

  1. FACTORY SETTINGS

You need to perform factory settings on your Alexa device that would help you solve the connectivity issue.
