Tidbyt can't find wifi network

Hi all. Setting up my Tidbyt for the first time. Stuck at the step where it asks to “Pick a wi-fi network”. It keeps refreshing lots of available wifi networks, but mine never shows up. I had my device and phone within a few feet of my router at the time and the wifi was working on all other devices.

Any ideas why it cannot find my wifi?

Thanks.

Did you end up finding a solution? I’m having the same issue :confused:

Do you know if you have a 2.4GHz network available, or perhaps only 5Ghz?

Does it not work with 5g? I only have the pw for the 5g network for my apartment.

From the FAQ: “Tidbyt supports 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks, with or without a password.” No 5g.

Just received a Gen 2.

Installed the app (Android), and no WiFi networks display to pick.

I have both 2.4 and 5 within 2 feet of where it’s plugged in, and many other 2.4 networks within “Reach”

My phone sees them all from the Wi-Fi config app, but not inside the Tidbyt app itself

Same here, just received a Gen 2 and the Android Tidbyt app on setup does not show any wifi networks to pick from. There are at least 10 networks within range, both 2.4 and 5ghz networks and doesn’t display anything.

Any solution? After months of waiting .I cannot use my tidbyt 2 because it won’t find my wifi network. It’s plugged in literally near the router. I’ve tried 2 different phones but it won’t find my wifi

Hi all. There was no solution. I had to return it.
