When you say you wake up and turn on the echo do you mean plug it in or say the wake word?
What type of internet connection do you use?

I wake up and power it up. Then it cant connect tp my network. This has only just started happening i had no issues for the last year. I have 37 mb d/l and 10mb upload so its not my internet speed. Also when its unable to connect my alexa app does not show it in my devoces so i have to go through registering again

Maybe you shouldn't turn it off (unplug it) everyday. I suspect that your Echo is trying to update its firmware. When you turn it off, the update gets interrupted and the Echo probably goes into failsafe mode. In failsafe mode, it will require you to re-register.

Na it litrally says unable to connect to wifi then goes into setup

Is there some reason you "must" shut the echo down very night? instead of leaving it on full time?... I don't imagine it pulls much juice to keep it "on" at all times... which is what almost EVERYONE in the Echo World does.

This technology isn't designed for constant power cycles... it's designed to have minimal power cycles and stay powered up 24/7/365... with a few blips and bumps in service once in a while due to updates and/or power outages and such...

Ok so echo has been on all day. I go into the kitthen and notice the purple flash................

I have not powered it off today.

I may have to email amazon support

I would call technical support instead of email. I think you will get a faster solution that way.

Echo customer support has a free 800 number.  Google for it.

Never heard of purple light on the echo.  It's probably bricked.

Na cant remeber what purple does... i created another wifi network on my network and joined it to that it works as it should now..

Odd my wifi network has not changed at all
