      Hi KatrinaP,

      Thank you for choosing the Echo Dot (5th Gen, 2022 Release) and for sharing your feedback. We understand how frustrating it is to constantly reconnect your device—that definitely shouldn't be your everyday experience!

      Frequent disconnection issues are often related to Wi-Fi connectivity or device settings. Here are some troubleshooting steps that should help:

      Move your Echo Dot closer to your router: Walls and distance can weaken the Wi-Fi signal
      Restart your router and Echo Dot: Unplug both devices for 30 seconds, then plug your router back in first, wait for it to fully restart, then plug in your Echo Dot
      Check for interference: Other electronics, microwaves, or baby monitors can interfere with Wi-Fi signals
      Forget and reconnect to Wi-Fi: In the Alexa app, go to Devices > Echo & Alexa > Your Echo Dot > Wi-Fi Network, and set up the connection fresh
      Update your device: Ensure your Echo Dot has the latest software by checking Settings in the Alexa app
      Switch to the 2.4GHz band: If your router has both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, try connecting to 2.4GHz as it has better range (though slightly slower speeds)

      If the problem persists after trying these steps, there may be a hardware issue with your specific device. We'd recommend reaching out to our support team at 1 888-280-4331 so they can investigate further and explore replacement options if needed.

      We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, and we want to make sure your Echo Dot works reliably without the constant reconnection hassle! AmazonDevices

    I absolutely love our Echo Dot. This is the second one that we have purchased and we plan on getting another. We absolutely love the Smart control and voice to light activation. The daily history is so fun to learn as we wake up in the morning with our Alexa, echo dot.

    Alexa needs to go back to school and study up on her geography. You ask her for travel time from A to B and she gives you a wacko response totally unrelated to your question. I have continuously given feedback, however nothing seems to come of it. I know it's not her, it's the idiots writing the code. I'll ask her to play music by XXX from Pandora and she'll play music by ZZZ from I ❤ radio. Geez get it right, OK?
