Bought a Hue sync box through Amazon to connect the sync lights I had purchased earlier, not the cheapest of purchases anyways it arrived today so keen to get it installed.
Supplied instructions were as much use as a chocolate fire guard, unit would not connect to the bridge due to the fact it only works on 2.4 GHz WiFi my router is set to 5 GHz.
So B4 I can proceed any further I had to find away of getting into the backrooms of my router and reconfigure the settings, after much trial and error I finally succeeded.
Why a company like Phillips cannot get out of the dark ages and get up to date with 5 GHz is beyond me.
So we now have everything connected except I have no audio, turns out the hdmi cable provided with the unit was faulty fortunately I have some spare cables, having swapped the cable over I finally got audio.
I have bought a lot hue products which are fitted around the house all have been simple and straightforward to install, sadly this sync box for the price Phillips charge and the inferior cable provided is not worth the money so it's being boxed up and returned for a refund .
