      It is difficult to determine the cause of the WiFi interruption. You can restart the WiFi router, ensure your 2.4 Ghz and 5.0 GHz networks are separated, take note to how far the IAVS16 is away from the WiFi router and how many walls the WiFi signal needs to pass through. Our Support Team would be happy to walk through some troubleshooting steps. Give us a call at 1-800-288-2792. Monday - Friday. iHome

    Audio Noise Annoyance

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I loved the idea of this device with Alexa built in. All seemed well, until the audio kicked in. How in the world can they design an audio circuit that has a static noise issues. If you don't care about audio quality, then I am sure you will be happy with this. When the volume is loud you will not notice it, but wait until you have it down and it is sitting next to you in bed. I ended up returning it.
