Possible Causes

Router client isolation enabled, Different Wi‑Fi networks for phone and thermostat, VPN active on smartphone, Firewall blocking local discovery protocols

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No electrical risk.

  • 1. Same network: Ensure your smartphone is connected to the same 2.4/5 GHz SSID as the EasyControl, not to a guest network.
  • 2. Disable VPN: Turn off any VPN or private DNS on your phone while pairing or controlling the thermostat locally.
  • 3. Router settings: Disable client isolation/AP isolation on the Wi‑Fi network used by the EasyControl.
  • 4. Use cloud mode: If local discovery fails but internet is available, control the thermostat via Bosch cloud (remote mode) until local issues are resolved.

Professional help: For complex network setups (VLANs, multiple routers), consult a network specialist.
