General Category > How do I...
I think I messed up my new GS911 before I even got started.

My gs911 wifi showed up today, so I dug up an old netbook running windows xp premium.
I hadn't used this netbook in a long time and a bit rusty on windows machine. Also my internet connection at home is beyond slow, so I went to the library for the downloads and setup.
I couldn't get the registration due to opera browser popping up and not working with the gs911. Windows update kept hogging up the laptop resource and I could not get it to stop. Finally after a task manager episode and going in control panel got that to quit bugging me and got the IE to open default for registration.
Registration went good and firmware update seemed to be good, but I didn't set up the wifi network at this time.
As mentioned, firmware seemed to update proper, but the button to check for updates was still clickable and I did of course click, and it updated again, still no errors.
Everything seemed to go as planned, but when I hook into the bike I get nothing.
in the utility v1510.3 tge IP address says connecting and that is all, never connects. If I click configure wifi I get nothing and nothing in the device list.
I created a new network and it is waiting for new users, and have no way to get the gs911 wifi to find it to connect.
I tried uninstalling the utility and installing, didn't help.
Anyway I do not need the wifi per se, and at this time would like the cable connect to work. Eventually I want to use the android, so I will need the wifi configured proper.
So how do I get this to configure? What am I missing?
Thanks

After some messing around, it looks like I am connected. I can't seem to find how to read the bike now.

Finally got the browser going. Too tired to go try a scan.
Tomorrow :)

Now I understand the post you made elsewhere, I can see you are learning, but windows is giving you grief ;D

Yes, windows and I go way back. My first 386, Packard Bell, bricked 2 in a row, went to mac and never looked back. Every time I used a windows machine, I was having troubles. Eventually I did go learn windows, and even worked for a year refurbishing XP machines. Got pretty good at debuggering em too.
Alas, I am far more happy playing with motorcycles :)
And when I see on the GS911 vehicle screen all the BMW and then Husqvarna I just smile. You and I know what that is about.
