First, be sure that your Echo is fully set up and has access to your network.

Enable UPnP and press Submit.





Under UPnP outlet binding configuration, verify that the outlets are checked that Echo/Alexa is to control.

Finally, tell Echo to “discover devices”.  If the total count is short, repeat the discovery step.
