Don’t use the qr codes, they don’t work. Type them manually.

Try activating your Spark like this:

That all looks so simple, and it would be if it wasn't for the Android/5GHz problem where you never see the Spark's SSID as it's on a band which mostly isn't used in Europe.

It would have saved me a lot of heartache if this, and the 'three beeps to reset WiFi' was mentioned in the quick start info.

I managed to get it activated, and updated the firmware as instructed
