TRJeff:
Any one else have continuing issues with the GS911 wifi? I purchased mine at the BMWMOA rally last year and have had constant issues with connectivity to computer with wifi or cable also with my IPhone, works only when it seems to want to. Today tried to use with computer found I needed to update, started update then connected with cable to computer saw gs911 for a short time then said it doesn't see gs911, does flash red /orange plugged into computer. plugged into bike that has worked before and flashes red/orange. Did I get a lemon or what? I usually don't have this many issues with this stuff.  I do have another help ticket to HexCode  :-\

WayneC:
Let us separate the two use scenario's and look at each separately to work out the problems

Firstly when you plugged via USB today and it indicated an upgrade was needed you did not mention whether the upgrade completed
Secondly what is the Windows Version on the computer ?

When connecting via WiFi are you connecting in Ahoc mode direct to the unit or via a home router in infrastructure mode ?

TRJeff:
I am using Windows 7 home premium version. When I first started the program recognized the device, after following prompts is when the problem started. Went to web site and tried to start over but programs would not see device.
If I go to computer and plug in device I get flashing green then it changes to flashing red/green/orange?  do not see device under computer. in devices and printers it does show a device Hex-Net, device starts flashing green then goes to flashing red/green/orange?
Start GS911 wifi launcher, does not see device, ( when I first started it did) click refresh and nothing happens, unit flashing green/red/orange?
GS911 downloader, plug in device starts flashing green then goes to the red/green/orange flashing, click download options and get
Error
failed to communicate with the GS911 interface, please check that the interface USB cable is connected properly to a USB socket
Invalid received from device

HELP

TRJeff:
I do not know if it ever finished down load,  GS911 beta is still 1407.5

WayneC:
The beta software you refer to 1407.5 is very old and the current release version is 1411

Look at it this way

There are two modes the GS911 WiFi operates in

1/ just like any GS911 when it is connected to the PC via USB

To use it in this mode you need to download and then install the PC application

2/ A WiFi device when you connect to it via WiFi

When in this mode there is firmware you download to update the device internally

There are 3 LEDs on the unit, which LED is flashing ?

Go back to the Hexcode web site and download both utilities

First the GS911 downloader to enable downloading the PC App

Secondly the GS911 WiFi utility to make it easy to connect to it via WiFi

I assume your PC has WiFi, if so use the WiFi utility to connect to it via WiFi,
