I've been trying to reset the service indicator on my F800GS for the last 4 hours!

1) My ISP provided modem/router doesn't like the 911wifi for some reason and won't allow it to connect.
2) Evidently you cannot reset service indicators in D2D mode.
And finally
3) I can't for the love of God get my laptop to access the 911wifi through the usb cable while the 911 is hooked up to the motorcycle.
Any ideas?

WayneC:
Can you indicate what laptop system and operating system you are using ? and what is the make/model of the router ?

Onequickwrench:
HP laptop running Windows8 & a CenturyLink DSL modem with built in wifi.
I even dug out my old Dell Lattitude that runs Windows XP and tried it.

I can connect with either (plus my iPhone and iPad) in D2D mode, but I can't connect to the 911wifi via the USB cable when the unit is plugged into the bike.

I'll eventually get the wifi network configured, but for now I want to lash the 911wifi and the PC via the cable and go to town on the service indicators.

My Dell has the 911 Beta software on it, should I try that program to connect to the 911wifi?

WayneC:
Yes use the Dell with the Beta PC software and confirm the WiFi unit is OK, once you have done that let us know

I am not one to assist with Win8 as I cant stand it and dont use it I am afraid

Onequickwrench:
Thanks for the tip, I'll try the 911Beta software tonight when I get home.

I'm of the same opinion about Windows 8 - personally I can't stand it, but it's the wife's laptop and she likes it.
