How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: No mains work is required unless you remove receivers.
- Audit devices: In the Hive app, review the list of installed devices. Remove any old or duplicate receivers or thermostats.
- Re-pair one zone at a time: For multi-zone systems, power up and pair each receiver and thermostat pair individually to avoid cross-pairing.
- Update firmware: Ensure all Hive devices are running the latest firmware to benefit from RF improvements.
- Relocate hub: Move the Hive Hub to a central location to improve RF distribution and reduce conflicts.
- When to call a pro: If RF conflicts persist, Hive support may need to remotely reset device associations or replace problematic hardware.
