Inconsistent acceptance of new passcodes

Aph127 — Thu, 27 Oct 2022 11:26:50 GMT

For the past few months we have had issues with our Nest x Yale locks at two rentals; we’ve had the locks for years and no change to our internet setup. For the last few months when a new guest initially tries to get in the passcode is not accepted despite being setup >24 hrs in advance and showing in the app. We have to unlock the door for them and give them a backup code we maintain.

troubleshooting we have done:

we have verified the lock time zone and the schedule for the passcode align - the passcode was operational when it was entered.
We have verified the correct code was entered in the correct manner.

As this doesn’t happen with every guest and is across two properties we aren’t sure how to address it and welcome input. Thanks!

I am not local to the device so haven’t been back to be able to try this. Thanks for checking and I will be in touch after trying this. It may be some time since the issue is inconsistent, working some but not all of the time. Thanks.
