I got a new router. Had to rebook tvs phones tablets etc. I can’t get the boiler to hook up to the new router. Get to the flashing blue light, then solid blue hook up to phone at wifiset.net, connects add info and page says I can leave that page as it will connect. Never does…tried 20 times! What should I try.

If the Central Boiler Fire Star fails to complete the setup after reaching the solid blue light, follow these steps:

1. Ensure the Fire Star is in Wi-Fi setup mode (solid blue light).
2. On a smartphone or Wi-Fi-enabled device, connect to the FireStar_XXXX network.
3. Open a web browser and go to www.wifiset.net.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to select and configure the new router’s Wi-Fi network.
5. If the connection still fails, restart the Fire Star and attempt the setup again.
6. Verify that the Wi-Fi credentials are correct and that the router is functioning properly.

If issues persist, consider rechecking the network settings or consulting an authorized dealer.
