Optimize Network Settings for Best Performance and Battery Life
For optimal performance and extended battery life, Joan devices work best when connected to a 2.4 GHz network with a 20MHz channel width. We recommend configuring your wireless network to these specifications to ensure the device runs efficiently and its battery lasts as long as possible.
Alternative configuration options
For older devices without Bluetooth please use see this article on how to configure the device with a USB cable.
Should you experience any issues during the configuration process, double-check the network credentials. If this does not resolve it, please take a screenshot of the error you are seeing in the app, and send it along with the device logs to support@getjoan.com.
