Hello, I just got an unopened DS4k from a coworker and I’m trying to get it to connect to my WiFi but it doesn’t even search for my WiFi. Here’s the steps I’ve taken:
1. I downloaded the iOS WiFi app (updated firmware 1.6.5.6)
2. I click Add new devices to the network
3. I connect to the DS hotspot (DreamScreenXXXX)
4. I go back to the App and it says “Scanning WiFi networks”
5. Then it just goes to the main screen where I can control the DS.
It never even tried to connect to my network. It doesn’t ask for any network to connect to, or for any password.
Now the only way I can control the DS is by connecting to it as a temporary hotspot. So I have to disconnect my phone from my WiFi network, connect temporarily to the DS hotspot and then control the DS, and then reconnect to my WiFi network.
What can I do to force it to try to connect to my WiFi network? Is there something I’m doing wrong? I have a few iRobot vacuums that connect to my network in the same way, but I’ve never had an issue connecting them. Thank you in advance.
