  4. Stand next to your grill and tap, Network Scan. Keep the app open during the 2-minute scan.

SYMPTOM

You may encounter one of two different messages during the pairing process between your grill and the app:

  • Grill couldn't get an IP address in a reasonable time.

CAUSE

There is an issue with the router.

The grill is trying to connect to WiFi, but the WiFi is either not accepting or rejecting the grill. This makes the request times out.
