Reef link and radions

image.jpg Ive been F@@$ing with these damn lights for over a week now I had programmed the lights via computer now I’m trying to setup the reeflink and can not for the life of me get it to find my damn lights. I WILL PAY SOMEONE TO COME HELP SET THIS UP. Before I take them all out back and smash and burn them. Idk if it’s my laptop or what. I had EcoTech clean the serial number so I can put it in my name and get it hooked to the WiFi but now I’m at a loss and ****s about to go down. If I was married these lights would of gotten me divorced.
 
Wow unbelievable not even joking 1 min after I created this thread it found my lights and is completely the configuration. Wtf
 
Smh I lost WIFI connection so I just plugged it in directly and it’s starting the configuration again. I just hope the reeflink isn’t to far away now otherwise it will have to wait till I get my WiFi booster or run a new hard line

Reef link range is good for 100 ft
Again never used one but I'm sure there could be issues with getting 100ft. Object like walls can affect range. Also if your wireless router is using the Freg that the reef link is using or even a cordless phone and/or microwave can affect it (again if they run on the same band)

Hardwire it. If possible. I haven’t touched mine in 2 years since I did

so looking over their very limited documentation

"If your ReefLink is having trouble communicating with your Radions, your ReefLink may be receiving RF interference - try relocating your ReefLink so that the ReefLink is not in close proximity to devices such as; cordless phones, media extender boxes, baby monitors or any other devices that also communicate using RF"

Range might be an issue (depending where you have it) but I thinking more RF interference
