Easy to set up
These plugs were really easy to connect to the app made for the plugs, and they can be linked to the Amazon Alexa app extremely easy as well. The app allows you to create a schedule for turning on/off, and so far it has worked flawlessly. Great value and great product!!

Great little devices, but…
I picked up two of these devices based on their ability to work with dual band networks to replace some older WiFi smart plugs from another vendor. Initially, the setup was quick and easy. Download the Android app, discover the plugs, configure the plugs, add UltraPro to a linked connection with Google Home, and done! The first device took all of 5 minutes start to finish. The second one however was much more of a challenge, but not because of the plug itself, but because of my WiFi.My WiFi is powered by an Asus ZenMax WiFi mesh router with a single satellite router to connect the other end of the house from the main router. I configured both plugs in my front room (closest to the main router) and they both worked fine. Moved one plug to it’s permanent home (even closer to the main router) and it worked fine. The second plug was to be furthest from the main router, but very close to the satellite router. Best I can figure is that the satellite router, despite broadcasting both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz wireless bands, was broadcasting something just different enough that I could not utilize the plug in the location I wanted to with the wireless being setup as is.My solution was to enable a Guest WiFi network which only broadcasted at 2.4Ghz, connect my phone to that network, go into the UltraPro app and then I was finally able to add and configure the second plug in the location where it was to stay. It functions correctly through both the app on my phone over the 5Ghz network as well as through my Google Home.While annoying, I do not place blame on the smart plug. This was a challenge with my particular WiFi setup. Hopefully this will help others in the future. We plan to pick up a couple more as well.

Couldn’t Connect
I have 13-14 Ultrapro wifi toggle switches in my house and after experimenting with the “scene” setting in the app, I decided to try these Ultrapro smart outlets. Im familiar with the Ultrapro app and integration with Alexa is flawless. With my previous experience I expected no difficulty in adding these smart plugs. I was wrong….. At first the plugs auto populated in the app to “add new device”, my wifi info is already on the app so it started connecting. I did this several time and ended up with the app “timeout” as I guess it took too long to connect to these new plugs. I reset these several times per the app instructions and no luck. I attempted several time to “manually” add the plugs and it still was either undiscoverable or timed out. Now I have one of those big boi tri-band router and the devices connect to it with out an issue whether its 2.4, 5, or the few 6ghz that are connected to my network. Most of these smart home devices I have are 2.4ghz including all of my Ultrapro switches and have auto connected to which band the required without issue. After probably close to an hour, I decided to dumb down my router and disabled the 5ghz and 6ghz bands temporarily so my phone and Ultrapro plug can only connect to the remaining 2.4ghz band as required. Still can’t get it to connect. So thats a wrap, back to amazon these go.

Smart Plugs
The item is great. I have them all over the house. This last order came late, it was opened and inside of another box.

Very easy to connect to my Alexa. Installing the app and connecting took 5 mins
