Reconnecting WiFi on Harman Kardon Invoke

Unfortunately, there’s currently no way of just reconnecting WiFi on the Harman Kardon Invoke Microsoft Cortana smart speaker.  Thus, to reconnect to Wi-Fi, but to a different wireless network, you must first completely reset the this speaker to factory default state.  Then, run through the setup procedure again. E.g. This involves setting up a brand new smart speaker. Thus, we demonstrate these procedures as follows.

Check out our   How to Reset the Harman Kardon Invoke Smart Speaker Back to Factory Default State   post.  Why?  Because we explain there how to erase all current settings in the speaker, and restore them to factory default values.





Now again, a hard reset is necessary to program the Invoke to reconnect to Wi-Fi on a different wireless network.

Furthermore, you might check out our   How to Set Up New Harman Kardon Invoke Cortana Smart Speaker post. This details how to set up a brand new or freshly reset Invoke speaker.  During setup, you will be able to establish a connection to a new Wi-Fi network on your Invoke.

Finally, we hope that Microsoft will add an  Update Wi-Fi Network   feature to the Cortana app.  This would allow changing the wireless network without having to redo all the other Invoke settings for the speaker.
