Can't setup home monitoring

I'm unable to set up home monitoring. Once I go to set up system, I tap on the first step "Roku Monitoring Hub" and a loading modal shows up and then disappears and nothing happens. I've tried waiting for something to happen, multiple taps, etc. Nothing works and I can't get past that step. I tried with the hub powered off, disconnected and connected via Ethernet. I'm connected on my 2.4ghz network but also tried 5ghz.

Re: Can't setup home monitoring

Hi @jmc0228

Welcome to the Roku Community!

We understand that you're having a hard time setting up your home monitoring on your app. We'd like to confirm that during your setup, were there any error codes or messages?

You can check this status light during your setup. It is important to understand what the status lights mean as you power on your home monitoring system and continue with the setup process.

Monitoring hub status lights

Your home monitoring hub has three status lights on top. Refer to the chart below to learn what the different lights can tell you about your hub.

Light behavior Status

  • Lights off: powered off or has no power
  • Three rolling lights: the monitoring hub is booting
  • Three solid lights: boot sequence complete
  • Lights flashing slowly: ready to connect
  • Lights flashing fast: connecting to a Wi-Fi or Ethernet network

Sensor status lights

Your entry sensors and motion sensors have a red LED status light. The light will blink once when the sensor is powered on and three times when the reset button is pressed.

You can check out this Support article for further information: How to Set Up Your Roku Home Monitoring System SE

Let us know what you find out.
All the best,
Arvy

Re: Can't setup home monitoring

The same thing is happening to me. I can't set up the monitoring hub through wifi or when plugged into the router or modem with the etherrnet cord. Any suggestions?
