General Category > GS-911 Wifi

New GS911 cannot access internet. to enable service options

<< < (2/2)

WayneC:
OK good to hear you are able to set up/save networks other than the iPhone, it suggests the issue is with the phone, do other devices connect to the phone hot spot, can you see the phone hot spot in network set up on the GS911 ?

I did get the Wifi to work by making sure I saved the set up for each network when adding the pass code. . 

That said I still cannot seem to get the 911  to see the hotspot no matter what I try..

So I am 1/2 way there. 

Cheers,

Hi Eric

The iPhones are a special breed, personally, I feel it's the biggest scam in earth's history :-) but, personal bias aside, you can enable compatibility mode as explained below:
https://it-training.apple.com/tutorials/support/sup040

Note that since the release of the iPhone 12, the hotspots are defaulted to 5GHz networks, and in order to make it 2.4GHz (the required frequency for a GS-911 to see the network), compatibility mode is required.

Once connected to the hotspot, and you're having trouble detecting the GS-911 on the WiFi app, reinstall the app on your mobile and accept all the permissions. They alter their required permissions to locate devices on a network more frequently than Windows updates, so we have to release a new version every so often.

Kind regards and safe travels

 Good day everyone!
I know it's a long time since the last reply here but maybe this helps to clarify things:
BMW R1250 RT
 iPhone: 15 pro
hotspot settings: compatibility on
Gs 911 wifi with last update via PC software!
  - do save the hotspot from main iPhone as described in the instructions.
  - first connect into D2D mode, I did a quick autoscan ( but I don't think its necessary)
  - activate the hotspot
  - remember to switch the device in infrastructure mode ( little red button one click ). The Gs 911 wifi should connect to it (check leds flashing sequence as explained in the manual).
  - in the app you should see listed your previously known device from D2D mode scan
  - connect and that's it.
In the picture below a screenshot from my first test yesterday. Unfortunately my battery was under 12V, so i did not enter the service functions as recommended. will try again later when it´s not -4 C° on the garage.
  I hope this gives a better overview for the hotspot connection variant, which to be honest was my main concern also as my home wifi is not reaching the garage.

Other option:
-Have a tablet / another phone and use the main iPhone as hotspot (wifi internet AP) for both devices.

 Well, Happy new 2025 to everyone!

PS:
 got two errors yesterday, clear faults and run again, did not came up. We'll see:
Emergency_(Telematics) Module
OxB7F32C internal control module error (F count : 1)
OxB7F30A SIF: General mobile network error ( F count: 3 )
