    Hello, I am a Yi Iot app user for Windows PC. I used to log in on the app and not having any problems at all, not until few days ago, whenever I tried to log back in again with the same old username and password, I am getting an “http send (2)” error on the log in page. I need your help on how to fix this issue. Thanks
