I tried this but turned off 5GHz. Uninstalled app, powered on grill, folloed the app prompts. Alwaysthe same result - Want to retry?We have a netgear orbi, and they try very hard to prevent you from splitting the SSIDs into two separate ones for each frequency.
What worked for me was logging in, and temporarily disable SSID broadcasting for the 5ghz band. Not disabling it, just stopping the SSID from being broadcast. Then, I disconnected my cell phone and had it "forget" the network. Then I refreshed and re-connected to the advertised SSID (2.4Ghz). At that point, I could complete the setup. Afterwards, I just re-enabled broadcasting the 5ghz SSID and everything is working fine.
I wish the folks at RecTec would experience what we do with this crap of an app and poor wifi design. No wonder the app on the Play Store has such a low score. Wish I could just return the grill. Disappointed ever time I go to use it.
Sorry to vent, I just want the drill and app to work.
