thanks i bought a new router and didnt think about the fact i had to reconnect it to the new router . I called blink i was on hold for 24 mins then went to you tube and you helped me fix it before they even picked up
I had the same thing happen and figured it out. I got a new plan from Xfinity and my blink module won't connect and keep saying wrong password. Steps I did: Remove power wire from module and hold down reset button for 20 seconds. Still holding down reset button I plug the power wire to my module and hold for another 20 seconds then release and then press the reset button 10 times Now blue light turns on. Green light is off. Press the reset button for 10 seconds and release now both blue and green light are on. Press the scan for device . Once connected to your blink module it will ask to connect to your Internet and add the password. At this point blink module is going to say updating your module and will take a few minutes. After update my camera work again. I tested out by going on live view and it's wasn't working so I reset my phone and everything went back to normal. Hope this helps everyone.
Thank you..Thank you. You helped me get my module back online. I've been trying for a long time with no success. Blink customer service support sucks. I appreciate you. ❤
Thanks...exactly what I was looking for. I just got a wifi extender, which has its own network, and I wasn't sure if I had to update the wifi network on the cameras I wanted to connect to this new extended network or what.
I've just bought a WiFi extender for my mums blink cameras as the signal on her 2 outside cameras is awful. I can't figure out how to connect the WiFi extender to the sync module. I presume I just do what this guy did in the video. Is it easy to connect the WiFi extender to the camera system.? 😉
I got mine to work. Unplug your sync module for about 10 seconds.. and then hold down the reset button-- and plug it back into power-- WHILE holding the reset button... For me, it was just a solid blue light at this point: --- Then go through the steps in the app again.. At this point it still failed to find the module.. So I held down on the reset button for 10 to 20 seconds again---- and the red light came on .... So I let go of the reset button.. then it should have the blinking light. (it might take a few seconds).. Then I just tried again with the app-- and it decided to work this time................. I'm not sure what exactly fixed it-- I just know that this is the order of steps that somehow worked for me.
I hv multiple blink cameras. I will b traveling n wanted 2 take one w/me n my sister home. Will I b able 2 view this camera? Do I hv 2 change the wifi? If so Will I b able 2 view the remaining cameras @ my home?
When I get to the part to add to network I don't see my home network. I fear that my new router from Comcast is only 5Ghz and my understanding is that Blink only works with 2.4Ghz
I have my blink set up to my Alexa on my echo show. Each time my motion detection goes off she let's me know on my echo device but she's not saying outside Camera, it's like a huge number she says each time it goes off. I can't figure out how to get her to say outside Camera when the motion detection goes off.
I went in settings where it shows the serial number (that's the number Alexa's saying) and changed it to what I wanted. Example: Front door, Side Door, Patio door, etc. Just tap on the number and the keyboard will display so that you can delete the numbers and enter the name of your choice. Hope this helps!
@@JAS6078yes I did this too. So now my Alexa says which camera is which, rather than her reeling off that long number 😂. I've just bought a WiFi extender for my mums cameras but having trouble connecting it.? I presume I just have to change the WiFi network like I this video.?
it didnt work everything looks fine then when trying to connect the solid green and blue blinking will suddenly turn red that is before the phone says cannot connect. any answers?
I had to get a new internet modem. So that meant resetting everything. I have gone through all of the Blink steps multiple times but it won’t accept my Internet password. I know it’s correct because I have used it to reset all my others devices. Any suggestions?
@@smarthomestarter I had this exact problem. You have to unplug it, then hold down the reset button and simultaneously plug it in. Finally it told me I needed a "firmware" update, which it did, and after 3 days it works again!!!
Great video, just what ive been searching for for ages. Ive bought a WiFi extender for my mums outside cameras as the signal on both is awful. I'm having trouble connecting the camera system to the TP Extender. Do i just do what you've shown in the video.? Do i just change the network.? I cant seem to find any videos on UA-cam explaining how to set up a WiFi extender to blink..🥴
keeps indicating that I entered the incorrect password. Tried this 30 times but the network & passord that is displayed is the correct one... Any way to bypass this I am getting frustrated here
Oh my goodness I'm having the exact same problem type in my password and it says wrong password I tried it four times I gave up let me know how you figured it out so frustrated right now I had to walk away
If you have Spectrum WiFi 6e router, you will haft to call Spectrum to slow your router speed down to 4.2Gbps. They will slow it down for one hour then WiFi 6e back to normal. It took my less than :30 to change password on my Blink sync module 2 and 6 Blink cameras with WiFi 6e.
It does work.. You don't need the subscription.. I got mine to work. Unplug your sync module for about 10 seconds.. and then hold down the reset button-- and plug it back into power-- WHILE holding the reset button...

I did this same thing and it just says "wifi password is incorrect" -- but I can see it, and it's absolutely correct. So I'm not sure what to do now.. edit: (I got it to WORK - read below)

You're a genius. Thank you for sharing this tip.
Me funcionó perfecto muchas gracias
Thank you this worked for me
Thank you so much. I struggled for a few hours during a very hectic day and just decided to BREATHE and go to UA-cam. There you were!
Thanks just did my WiFi extender and had to change the WiFi 👌🏼 worked great
I hv multiple blink cameras. I will b traveling n wanted 2 take one w/me n my sister home. Will I b able 2 view this camera? Do I hv 2 change the wifi? If so Will I b able 2 view the remaining cameras @ my home?
Thanks! You made it easy. I forgot how many devices are on my network until I got new service.
When I get to the part to add to network I don't see my home network. I fear that my new router from Comcast is only 5Ghz and my understanding is that Blink only works with 2.4Ghz
I have spectum and their routers are no longer duel band. I have to use 5.0 G. Will the Blink work on a 5.0 G?
Unfortunately, the do not. They are designed specifically for 2.4
oh .I assumed I needed to go to each device's settings and then manually change the wireless. That was the instruction I found when I googled it.
Just a little easier
That was my thought as well and I have 6 cameras on the outside if the house
Thank you so much this was perfect and quick!!!!!! ❤
Glad it helped!
Worked perfectly! Thank you!

it didnt work everything looks fine then when trying to connect the solid green and blue blinking will suddenly turn red that is before the phone says cannot connect. any answers?
I just keep getting “unable to communicate with sync module 2” So the cameras need to be right next to you???
It didn't work for me. Got all the way to my own wifi network and password, but it said it was the wrong wifi and password (it was not),. Any hints?
can you just use a wifi hub that is not connected to the internet? like a portable smart hub?
I had to get a new internet modem. So that meant resetting everything. I have gone through all of the Blink steps multiple times but it won’t accept my Internet password. I know it’s correct because I have used it to reset all my others devices. Any suggestions?
Have you tried resetting the sync module? A factory reset might help.
Maybe even create a whole new account in the app and try there.

I am only getting a steady green, no blinking blue light. What should I do?
Check your WiFi. Unplug and try again
@@smarthomestarter I have done this several times, do you think I might need a new sync module?
saved my life bro 🔥
It's what we do 😎

I didnt use a hub at cameras last wifi location. Now at a new wifi location its asking for a hub.
Omg. Thank you so much
You’re welcome!

@@debbiep9338 So far, no response from either Blink or Amazon
Same issue!
I’ve tried this numerous times after changing internet providers and I get all the way to choosing my internet and it keeps saying wrong password
My Sync module 2 has no button on back
Should have a pinhole on the side
It has the tiny hole next to the USB.. You have to stick a paper clip in there
Thanks we found it that same day. Thanks.

I cannot find the change WiFi on my app my screen is not the same as yours
It’s in the sync module section
I did this same thing and it just says "wifi password is incorrect" -- but I can see it, and it's absolutely correct. So I'm not sure what to do now.. edit: (I got it to WORK - read below)

@@calhollithank you so much for this, it worked for me too!! I tried everything and nothing worked!
The blue ligth do not turn on and I tried everything
Can someone tell me why it says my password to my WiFi is incorrect when it is correct?
Why do I not have a reset button?
Type in my new password for my new Wi-Fi says wrong password I've done it four or five times irritated
Unable to access network
"BLINK-02WK"😭😭😭
He must have a hackable password cause he put it in way to quick 🧐
Shhhhh 🤫🤫
It don’t work
What part didn’t work?
No info on changing camera WiFi. Sync mod is easy. No explanation needed there.
Can’t change it on individual cameras
Cams automatically reconnect after you change the module WiFi.
🌈 Promo-SM
Got a new router and after all of the different ways and suggestions, still unable to add my SM and connect to wifi. Very frustrating.
Same here!! Nothing is connecting
same, I just got with a new internet provider and I'm still having trouble connecting.
What if you do t have a sync module? Just a camera?
Excellent video! Thank you very much!
