I have the standard Wifi version GS-911, and I'm a rookie user at best. I have used it on my R1200GSA to reset the service reminder, two different R1150RS bikes, and most recently a K1200RS over the weekend (on these last three bikes, we wanted to ensure there were no "mystery" codes following brake bleeds, which have the servo assist braking system) I Wifi the unit to a Samsung Galaxy tablet, and it works great at my house. The problem I'm having is that I had gone to two separate houses where the other bikes were being worked on, and I could not get it to cooperate at those locations. At one house, we downloaded the app on my friend's laptop, then direct connected the GS-911 with the supplied USB adapter to resolve the problem. At the other house this past weekend, I tried connecting to that friend's Wifi with my Galaxy tablet, tried downloading the app to his iPad and my iPhone (which was Wifi'd to his house just in case it needed to be), and we still had no luck with it. I then advised him to come by my house with his bike so we could check it there when he gets done with his 24k service.
I'm truly a simpleton when it comes to these types of Wifi gadgets. Can someone explain why it's not playing nice when I'm away from home? I'd sure like to be able to use it on the road somewhere if needed!
