Router Issuing 2 IPs for 1 device
 
Im having issues with my router issuing 2 IP Addresses for a smartplug which Alexa then says is unavailable.

I Cant understand it as the IP addresses end in 149 and 173.

I have tried setting a static IP and it does the same again.

Anyone have any idea?

Who is the Smartplug by?


I have found that Amazon Fire TV has 2 IP address on my system.

Possibly showing IPv4 and IPv6 addresses if device does both?

I thought devices like this make just one connection when you set it up in its main application

To OP did you use Tuya or Smartlife or something else to set it up in the first place? I would go into whatever app you used remove the device and set it up again from scratch try a different name. Then go back into your alexa app and discover new devices and see if that works
