Cannot add device (Shelly Pro 3) to the App

[Franz-Georg]

Hi, I have problems adding my Shelly Pro 3 to the Shelly App.

• I attached the Shelly to our LAN (RJ-45) and changed the Network Setting to a fixed IP-Adress, Netmask, Gatway, DNS-Server
• Next, I started the GUI through this interface, updated Firmware to latest level, added a password for device login
• Up to this point everything worked fine.
• I installed the Shally-App on an iPhone, created an account and logged in.
• In the "add device" section I found the Shelly (both via Bluetooth and WLAN AccessPoint).
• But if I proceed, I have to enter a WLAN SSID and Password !!!

I have tried many things but I am not able to add the device to the App successfully.

Questions:

- Why is a SSID and Password requested ???   The Shelly is connected with RJ-45 to the internet already !

- What is the correct network of the requested SSID ?   Is it the Shelly's access point network or is it any external network with internet access ???

- Are there special requirements for the cable-attached network, e.g. do we have to open any ports in the firewall ?

- Is there a step-by-step installation guide for setting up the device with a cable-attached network ?

Thanks in advance for any help !

Please choose „Scan Network“ to add the LAN connected Shelly:

Next, „Add by IP“:

 

…and enter the IP address:

 

There should be no question for SSID and password.

Now, it works perfectly.  Thanks !
