Balboa Wifi Module

(1/3) > >>

Letran:
I'm having a hard time getting to set this thing up. I've reset it twice now.

I'm good with everything up until the point of me saving my SSID/password. After choosing the network name and entering the password it won't let me SAVE. The button is there I keep on pressing it doesn't do anything.

Just wondering if anyone else is having a similar issues with these wifi modules.

JustAnotherNewbie:
I had the same problem. just couldn't figure it out. eventually while messing with my phone, io notices the spa has it's OWN Wi Fi. Mine is named BWGSpa_23D42, I was able to connect directly to it and monitor and control it, etc. But no matter what I did I couldn't connect it to my home WiFi . I gave up and just use it directly.

Letran:
I managed to get it all connected last night after at least 4 tries.

Yes The wifi-module initially and upon reset will have its own. Once you enter the your wifi for local and cloud control the BWGXXX will no longer broadcast. BWGxxx is what you need to connect initially then enter your own personal wifi-settings so that you are able to connect to the tub even when you are far away from the tub but have local access to you home router, which will then also allow you to control the tub via any internet connection (well as long as your tub is connected to your router)

Balboa has youtube instructions. Are you connecting to Android or iOS?

Letran:
wow, does this $%#&# module/app lose connection all the time?

I've got it all working one day and now no connection again. grrrr

JustAnotherNewbie:
I hear you! I'm using android and have tried and tried, still can't get it to connect to the home WiFi with zero success. Definitely regret adding it on .
