Model 4D WIFI, connection issues
« on: May 31, 2019, 06:47:03 PM »
The wifi keeps connecting & disconnecting to the router. Any suggestions?

What brand/model of router are you using?  How is your signal strength at the smoker?  Have you tried relocating your smoker temporarily to see if it has any effect on the connection quality/consistency?

When you say it keeps 'connecting and disconnecting', how does that present itself?  (Does the smoker itself say there is no connection?  Does the app say the smoker isn't online?)
