Anyone successfully connected one to Wi-Fi? The instruction say to press the power button for 5 seconds untill the Wi-Fi icon flashes. Mine flashes 3 times then goes off and the pump can't be found. I would expect the Wi-Fi icon to flash continuously while connecting but no matter how long I press the power button or how quickly in release it after the icon starts to flash I still only get 3 flashes and the device not found. My router is 2.4 only but I never get the point that even matters because I can't get the app to see the pump.
I can run it with the remote fine but would still like to be able to at least check the app out since I've never had a jecod WiFi device.
Using AP mode doesn't work either. I never get the Wi-Fi and AP icons. Much of the AP instructions use red and green lights which this unit doesn't even have so they're pretty useless.

EDIT. Directions suck lol. I had to make the device discoverable which isn't mentioned in the instructions that I saw. Networking is far from my forte and why I'm still on an old 2.4 only router 🤪

TBH I think its will be easier for me to just use the remote which does work.

Hi @exnisstech,

I'm having the exactly same issue, wifi blinks 3 times and the device is not found.
The control works, the bluetooth connection also, but cant get the Wifi to work.

Thanks for the reply. I ended up just using the remote. I wish the vortech manual controls were as easy to use. I have some learning to do if i have to start controlling them manually lol
