INstall woes on Win10 laptop

I think once I connected via the web browser, but that is not the usual way I do it.
When I used the wifi downloader exe, it went to the connect via wifi screen. I entered in the home network, I think???it connected, but the screen said I was connected via usb even when the cable was not connected.
I know...confusing.
TBC, I'm happy to connect via USB as I have for the past few years

It would be best to get the GS911 operational into your home WiFi network to use the web browser interface, it seems you are only using a small % of the capability & having cables to connect is a pain in the butt, with the PC App we use TCP/IP connection over WiFi in workshops so no cables
JayElDee:
Ok, thanks.
You've used the term "P C App" a couple of times.
What app are you specifically referring to? Is it the basic GS-911 app , meaning "the gs911 app on the pc" or something else? Remember, I haven't been a windows user for about 10 years.
WayneC:
The PC Application is the Windows GS911 Application, it runs on Win XP & later versions, in your first post you mentioned using the Downloader to download & I assume install it on WIn10. That will run on XP, I use it in some bench testing quite often here
JayElDee:
thanks, ok, we're talking about the same app. That is installed on my XP and that is the oe that will not install(so far) on the wn 10.
At work now, will check when home

Jay, mine's doing the same thing. I have downloaded both the Wifi and USB versions several times, removed the USB version, etc. Both versions worked until yesterday. I'm frustrated and disappointed; when GS-911 first came out, it worked better than what BMW supplied their dealers. With every "improvement", it seems worse.
