  • After 3 weeks of research through Google, You Tube, Amazon chat help,
    and my own idea's. I finally found the solution on why it would not connect to the internet anymore and how I corrected the problem.

    What I am fining out is that all of the echo 3rd generations went down at the same time. For whatever reason, all of my other ones work, just not the echo 3rd gen. Thanks for making me laugh.

      Thanks for the comment. I have been using my newer one quite a bit lately. For a long time I just sat there. And I have not had any trouble with the new one.

    Thank you. I thought I was losing my mind but saw you on the tube and LOVED your solution. My wife and daughter don't like the solution so I cannot try it. Your tube serves a purpose - I now know I am NOT STUPID and am FRUSTRATED with this device. I search for a solution that please my home females. I like yours better!

      I know what you mean I was totally frustrated. I was determined to get it fixed. But there was no solution. Don’t hardly ever use it, that is the new one probably didn’t even need to get one.

    HAHAHA🤣😂🤣 Perfect solution. I had the same problem as you but I had 5 of my 6 dots not connect over night. Tried everything under the sun to get them working again over the last 2 weeks. Nothing worked... including resetting router and modem, disconnecting, reconnecting, taking off cellular data, adding and removing bluetooth, reinstalling the alexa app, moving the device closer to the wifi, wearing an aluminum shield over my head, clicking my heals 3 times while holding my breath, and even shielding my entire home with one of those 10000 foot rolls of aluminum foil from costco.
    I'm done with you Alexa!!!! Going back to mechanical switches and transistor radios.
