Disconnects it's self from the network after a few minutes.
The scan code does not work (tries to connect to a non existent site. If you don't need the RF buy the RM4 mini, it works fine. This thing is useless as it will not stay connected to the network for more than a few minutes. Spent an entire day trying to get the thing to work with my Netgear RAX120 router with the same result: Re-installing the apps not ever sure I was using the correct one. I could get the thing working with my tv and a/c; however, after only a few minutes it would go off line. In frustration I decided to try the RM4 mini I bought at the same time; it worked with Broadlink app first time no problems. I do wish it would connect to the Alexa without the app; I do not like devices that require a internet connection to work. They have major issues with reliability and security. In my attempt deal with this issue I contacted BroadLink's support; Of course they assumed I was an idiot but finally convinced them the Pro+ was defective. They then told me I would need to contact the seller, so I did; the seller told me I would I would need to talk to Amazon. How much time do I need to spent trying to get this settled. I have seen this before; every one points the finger at some one else; leaving me in the middle. "I AM DONE WITH THIS", the service really sucks. I need to find some thing else that works.Amazon replaced the device and it now works perfectly; Thank you Amazon! One thing I found out while trouble shooting Issues with the original unit: The Pro+ does not like some wifi security options. I found the Pro+ likes WPA2-Personal [AES] on my Netgear RAX120 router.

What you need to know if you want to use it with alexa
I got this to control some IR/FR devices via alexa like a projector, projector screen, LEDs, but as someone else mentions in the reviews, alexa only will discover tv remotes. So you have to trick alexa by setting a remote to every device as a tv remote. WELL... it happens that alexa also discover scenes! With that being said. I didn't trick alexa by using tv remote for all my devices, instead I create scenes and works perfectly!If you're not sure how to do it here's an example of what I did. My projector is controlled via IR and has two different buttons for ON and OFF. When I need to turn it off the OFF button must be pressed twice so, I create a universal remote on the IHC app, ON and OFF buttons were programmed, then I created 2 scenes in the same app one called "projector on" where contains one press of the ON button from the projector remote. And a second scene called "projector off" which contains two presses of the button off of the projector with a gap of 3 seconds in between. Now with these two scenes created you go to your alexa app and discover your scenes, both will show up so you just need to create an alexa routine where you say for example "alexa turn on movie mode" and in my case I add the "projector on" scene and add my smart bulbs to turn them all off. Works as I wanted to work. Then you keep doing the same for all devices, create a scene for every press of universal remotes and bring these button presses to alexa a scene and include them on routines. Hope this helps.Update Nov 04: connection between alexa and ibroadlink is broken. Alexa is accepting voice commands related to the RM pro , but the RM Pro is not executing them. If you control them thought the IHC app the RM pro will execute then successfully. only vida alexa is not working right now. Will keep you posted. Please fix! UPDATE: WORKS AGAIN! THANKS

trial and error
I ordered the RM Pro, only to find out a few days later that there was an RM Pro+. I was gonna wait for this to come to swap it out, but they sent me an RM Pro +! Very pleasant surprise as I thought I had gotten the older/lower model. Shipping was extremely fast (came a week sooner than expected). I had issue after issue setting the Rm Pro + up, but after two hours of trial and error managed to get it running flawlessly! From what I can tell, the interface isn’t very user friendly. If something goes wrong during setup, don’t quit and return it, reset it and TRY AGAIN. Fixed almost all my issues this way! Trial and error, as well as patience, are key to setting this up!

Horrible product!
Started out good. APP installed easily and picked up my SAMSUNG TV Immediately. However, it would not see the RF signal to my ceiling fans and did not work with my very common Uverse Cisco IR controller. Worst of all, it has no ability to work with a RF control for a cable control box, only IR control is available. Then, when trying to manually learn codes from the IR signals, it would learn some buttons and not others. Example, 0, 1 would not work, but 2 and 3 would. Also, the APP would often report random network fails on what is a very powerful wireless signal.Finally, the Amazon link works well for basic commands, but depending on the Cable box you have, many of the buttons/commands do not work with Alexa.SUMMARY:1) RF signal scanning seems to either not work, or does not work for all common US RF frequencies.2) There is no way to configure an RF controller for TV/Cable box.3) Learning mode for IR signals is very problematic making that feature largely unusable.4) The ALEXA connection is strong but lacks comprehensive commands. Example: I could only change TV Volume by 10 points at a time. As my TV has 100 points of volume, I would have to say, "ALEXA volume up by 10 on TV" 3 times to increast volume from 30 to 60, ridiculous!

Ottimo prodotto compatibile con Alexa.
Il prodotto funziona benissimo, comando la tv e il condizionatore da sei mesi senza alcun problema. E' compatibile con Alexa ma con poche azioni disponibili (tipo "Alexa, Accendi/Spegni 'dispositivo' o "Alexa, più volume 'dispositivo').

Just don't use the IHC app
DONT USE THE APP THEY RECOMMEND. It's really terrible and setup didn't work at all. If you use the Broadlink Universal Remote app instead, then it works seamlessly. I was surprised how easily my TV and air con were paired with it and then with Alexa. You can also set up scenes in the broadlink app and then activate them by voice with Alexa (e.g., to set a specific air con temperature and fan configuration).
