This is how to correct a connection issue if your Schlage Encode WiFi smart deadbolt won't recognize your Wifi if you have both 5G and 2G networks on your wifi router. Basically have to forget both 5G and 2G networks in your cell phone, run a factory reset on your Schlage Encode, and only add back the WiFi network on your phone settings that you want the Schlage to operate off of. And then run a full initial setup of your Schlage Encode lock. In my case I wanted it to run off the 2G network.
8/16/21 update: this lock unit has gone through its first set of 4 AA batteries and even with recent thunderstorms that knocked out wifi connections, this Schlage encode has been fantastic in functionality with decent battery life. Thumbs up on this product.
7/19/24 Update: the lock unit just failed last week. When it stopped working, I swapped out two different sets of fresh batteries, cleaned the battery connections, and even inspected for moisture or other visible damage. Absolutely DOA. Was surprised that the lock failed after about 3 years of use. Am going with a non-WiFi enabled Kwikset Powerbolt 250 for $$67.
