Hi there,
Consider setting up your hub using an Ethernet connection first. Once finished, you can connect your Smart Home Hub to Wi-Fi afterwards. (Main Menu ā Settings ā Change device Wi-Fi network).
How to setup Smart Home Hub
What brand/model of any of the devices that you can not add? new devices or existing devices you are moving from another hub? Just checking to see if any z-wave devices need to be excluded or any zigbee devices reset if you are moving from another hub 
should probably ask what the led color is on the front of the hub when trying to add devices
Set it up by ethernet then moved to wifi. Any idea what that code means?
No Sorry, contact samsung support

Thatās the message you get when a smartthings Wi-Fi device canāt connect. People used to get it with the old smartthings brand Wi-Fi camera, for example. It does sound like the hub is not properly connecting to Wi-Fi, for what thatās worth. Smartthings support should be able to say more.
ST support ran a couple of test. Says the hub is fine, but all 23-25 devices are having trouble connecting. Iāve reset 6-8 of them to factory default and tried to āAdd Device.ā Still get the 07-999 error on each attempt.
Removed the hub from ST app and did a factory reset. Tried to add it to ST app. Now itās on āInstalling Firmware.ā 99% complete, and has been there for 40 minutes. If I try to exit, I get āWait until hub is ready.ā Donāt want to die of old age while waiting.
How did it go? Can you add devices yet? I have a new Aeotec hub (smartthings v3) and Iām trying to add Aeotec multisensor 6 - but to be fair it doesnāt matter what I try to add because it just says "Couldnāt add device Something went wrong try again later (error code: 07-999).
Yes Iāve been through the āupdating firmwareā when you switch on the hub
Me too - exactly the same response. No devices added, not devices reset to factory, not devices straight new out of the box. In effect, smartthings which i have had for years before changing the broadband supplier and network name is useless. And no, I canāt go back because I factory reset my hub.
My SmartThings Hub v3 died two weeks ago - it just blinked blue and didnāt ever connect to my LAN. After many emails back and forth with Samsung support, they concluded what I said from the beginning: The hub was dead and should be replaced.
I bought a new hub, Aeotec Smart Home Hub. Set it up.
I added my Hue hub, but when I try to add any z-wave devices, it almost immediately gives me the 07-999 error. So right now, my SmartThings hub is a Hue hub

I went to the smartthings website, logged in, removed ALL devices from the old hub, then deleted the old hub - now it seems like the 07-999-error is gone. Trying to delete the old hub without first deleting the devices attached results in a 500 Internal Server Error - no helpful hints.
