SleepIQ technology requires Wi-Fi to get your bed online

SleepIQ technology requires a Wi-Fi connection to get your bed online. If your bed is not online, certain features of your smart bed will not be available and will not work properly. For the best experience, check your router settings to ensure your internet service and wireless access point meet the SleepIQ technology requirements.

To remove a Wi-Fi network, you will need to access the SleepIQ Web portal – this cannot be done via the Sleep Number app. Your bed must be online and set up to remove your Wi-Fi network through the SleepIQ website.

Your smart bed works best with a 24/7 internet connection. Some SleepIQ technology devices are not compatible with 5 GHz Wi-Fi, but all are compatible with 2.4 GHz. The Sleep Number app will only display acceptable available networks.

To ensure your SleepIQ technology is compatible, set your radio mode to B, G, B/G/N mixed or B/G mixed. AC, N-Only is not compatible with SleepIQ. Set your security/passcode to WPA or WPA2. Passwords are case sensitive and space sensitive and must be between 8 and 63 characters. Passwords with special characters (@!#$%) may cause failures to connect to Wi-Fi. Set Mac Filtering to be disabled or add the pump MAC address to allowed devices. The MAC address is located on the pump product label, beginning with CC or 64. Set your primary DNS to 8.8.8.8 compatible. Using a mobile hotspot is not recommended, as this can result in interrupted connections and inaccurate sleep data.
