GS-911 Wifi / Re: Phone and GS911 on same netword

Which one is yours

Dual-band router
A dual-band router can transmit at both frequencies simultaneously. This creates two networks, usually with the same name except for a "2.4G" or "5G" at the end. You can then connect devices to either network.
Combined SSID
A combined SSID broadcasts both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz on the same network name. The router and device will automatically choose which band to use based on the device's capabilities and connection.
Tri-band router
A tri-band router broadcasts three networks simultaneously: two 5 GHz signals and one 2.4 GHz signal. This is a good option for homes with a lot of network congestion or heavy high-resolution streaming.

I use a combined.

Thanks Jim, I was well aware of how to disarm the tilt sensitivity with the double press (living on an island accessed by ferry). My comment was to remind others re activation and range.

Yes I am. Both frequencies have the same password but the GS911 operates on 2.4 and the phone was connected to 5 only and they could still both talk to each other.

I assume you are referring to your home network. Some transmit both frequencies on separate password (can be different or same) protected networks. Others only have one password protected network that decides which frequency to use depending on device and/or proximity. Right now 4 of 9 connections are 5 and the rest 2.4 on my home network, all set by the WIFI gods and not me.

The alarm will not activate when fob is in range but untill you turn on the bike it is still armed.

The "range" is a very short distance (1 m), usually having the fob in a jacket pocket is fine but sometimes you have to change the storage position to ensure it remains in range while riding and also avoid signal blocking items next to fob. I am not sure if this is a model or a individual bike thing but I have had it happen to me on a rental before and on my own ride once or twice.

I have had the alarm go off in the past when washing the bike when the fob was in my pocket because of where I was standing. To avoid this
1: turn off alarm wth fob (one tone)
2: turn on alarm with fob (two tones)
3: turn on alarm again with fob (three tones). It is now in bike wash (or ferry/train) mode.

To put back in full mode use steps 1,2 or turn bike on and off and let auto arm.

GS-911 Wifi / Phone and GS911 on same netword

Something I found today which was interesting is that my GS911 was on the 2.4Ghz network and my iphone was connected to the 5Ghz version of the same network and everything still worked. I was under the impression both had to be on 2.4Ghz.

Something that caught me out and probably many others is that the alarm doesn't function when the key fob is in range. And then every now and again, it will go off when the fob is in range (but I quite often get a "key out of range" signal while riding, even after changing batteries) so it possibly goes off when the key fob loses connection when close.

NCIS errors usually indicate a problem with the installer. Make sure you are running the installer as an administrator. Check that you have the latest version of Java installed, as this may be required. Try running the installer in Windows XP compatibility mode. If the problem persists, consider contacting support for further assistance.

The GS911 Diagnostics Application will need Win7 or later to install
