Cannot get this new DJI smart controller to link to my home WIFI to complete setup. No problems with other devices that are running it will not just connect any thoughts much appreciated.
It was just using the home WIFI connection and following the setup prompts on the smart controller screen which all worked well . Got to where the controller scanned up my WIFI site showing detail and asked for the password which I supplied and entered then getting message..... connecting to WIFI failed. My home WIFI is Telstra Australia NBN cable never had a connection problems to date. No problems previous setting up a MPP.How did you attempt to connect it? What happened when you tried that?
Some devices having troubles to connect to WiFi hotspots with authentication set to WPA2 personal encryption AES only.
Change this setting in your WiFi hotspot/router to "WPA personal AES+TKIP"
Great news. [emoji3]Once again many thanks PGTips success via mobile hotspot locked and loaded. Currently installing smart controller update V01.00.0310 . What a relief. Cheers.
Phones can't usually make two Wi-Fi connections simultaneously, or relay Wi-Fi, being a client on one, and be an access point (server) for the other.Hardgainer, I've found a workaround that works for me - hopefully you can do the same thing. I connected my mobile phone to my wifi and then used that to create a mobile hotspot. The controller was able to connect to the hotspot with no problem, even though the phone is connected to the same wifi that the controller coule not connect to. My controller is now activated. Happy days. It's not a proper fix, but will get me up and running and hopefully you and others too.
I also raised a call with DJI support who were quite unhelpful and instantly jumped to the 'we need to send you a replacement unit'. I told them I'd sorted a workaround and they then said it was probably a limit on my router! Don't you just love unhelpful companies?
Anyway, hopefully you can get the same results and they will find a long term fix. Good luck and let me know how it goes.
