How to Change Wi-Fi Networks on Alexa?

If you’ve moved or changed internet providers, you’ll need to update your Alexa device with the new Wi-Fi network information. Thankfully, switching networks is a straightforward process.

Step 1: Open the Alexa App

Open the Alexa app on your smartphone and ensure that Bluetooth is turned on for easier device discovery.

Step 2: Access Device Settings

From the Devices tab at the bottom of the app, tap on Echo & Alexa to display a list of all your connected Alexa devices. Select the specific device you want to connect to a new network.

Step 3: Update Wi-Fi Information

Within the device’s settings, tap Change next to the Wi-Fi Network section. This will prompt the app to scan for available networks. Select your new Wi-Fi network from the list, enter the password, and confirm the connection.

Step 4: Test the Connection

Once Alexa is connected to the new network, you can test the connection by giving a command, such as, “Alexa, what’s the weather today?” If Alexa responds, you’ve successfully changed the Wi-Fi network.
