iGrid no longer “going green”
« on: October 21, 2023, 08:59:03 pm »
Hi there;

I had iGrid working just fine up until beta forced an update (see my other recent thread)

Since then I’ve been unable to get iGrid to show a “green” GSM symbol (showing the connection working) on the radar page

Instead I’m only getting the “orange” GSM indication

On the network page a green connection to my iPhone hotspot is shown

Any ideas?

Thanks

Is the "Router" function still enabled?

i am having problems also, but it does not seem to be connected with the latest update as i have noticed the problem before.

The problem is this, I have my mobile iphone 13 set up with mobile hotspot but when GSM stays red i eventually look at the relevant PAW page and i find my Rosetta has found half a dozen wifi hotspots and wants to join to anything but my iphone. Then i force it to link to my iphone hotspot (albeit i have done that at the initial setup time when i bought the wifi module and gave it my phone's password) which then gets the GSM orange and green indications to show.

Am i doing something wrong or should the software be fixed to stop linking up to to any tom dick and harry wifi and just look out for mine

Some help please because as a pilot i don't want extra hassle.

Is it possible to delete or forget all the other networks?

An update on this. I think it’s ultimately working just the gsm data isn’t available as readily for whatever reason. Hence orange rather than green indication

Last flight it did ultimately connect but the data availability was patchy

I’ll keep an eye on it for any further clues of info

Thank you for the replies and feedback
