Questions and answers
Hi, my Jim Bowie no longer can be detected by my phone.
Your GMG Jim Bowie grill may not be detected by your phone due to issues with the WiFi setup. Possible reasons include:
1. The grill is connected to a 5GHz network instead of a 2.4GHz one.
2. The network name (SSID) may need to be changed.
3. The WiFi board on the grill may need to be reset.
4. The router may need to be restarted.
5. The latest firmware (1.8) should be installed on the grill.
A possible solution is to reset the WiFi board on the grill, rename the network, disable the 5GHz band, and try reconnecting.
