The Sengled bulbs only work on 2.4GHz frequency. If your T3200M does not have SmartSteering turned on then your SSID for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz will be different. If your phone is on 5 GHz then the app won't be able to give the Sengled bulb the correct 2.4 GHz SSID. If this is the case then you need to connect to the 2.4 GHz SSID with your phone before attempting to set up the Sengled WiFi bulb with the app on that phone.
Go here for instructions on turning on SmartSteering. You don't need to turn it on, you just need to follow the instructions to view the settings page and determine if it's on or off. If your network is otherwise working well then don't turn it on, just follow my instructions above.
