Active Captain and WiFi Networking Issue

Featured Replies

  • Super User

I just added a Garmin UHD2 93SV to go along with my older model UHD 93SV but I ran into some problems today.

 

I set up a second WiFi network for  my new UHD2 and let's call that Garmin2 and the old unit is Garmin1.

 

When I open the Active Captain app I can connect to either Garmin1 or Garmin2 depending upon which network I connect my phone to. However, when I go into My Marine Devices on Active Captain, only the old UHD unit shows up. I tried searching for the new device while connected to Garmin2 and got the message that it was connected successfully, but the only device showing is the old ID number for the Garmin1.

 

So I went and registered my new unit manually through Active Captain but it still doesn't show up. Any ideas why?

 

Maybe the above item needs to be sorted out before I can fix the next item. I can't get the unites to connect via WiFi. I set the new unit to be the host. But on the old unit it doesn't give me the option to be the client. It is also listed at host and I can't find a way to remove that.

 

When I go to the new unit and ask it to search for other units it tells me that no other units are found.

 

How do I remove the host option from my older unit?
