Just purchased an Ironwood 885 and not having any luck in connecting Traeger app to grill ...well, sort of. The app recognized the grill and ID’d it and then the grill started updating by downloading files. This hasn’t stopped downloading for the past 10 or so days. The grill is connected to my home network and the connection to my wifi network is excellent.
I called Traeger who led me through some things to do including deleting the grill from the app. I did this and at Traeger’s suggestion, tried to Add a Grill. This wouldn’t let me as the grill is still ‘downloading files’ so will not ‘speak’ with the app. The Traeger support person said that apparently there had been an issue with the latest release of the Traeger app. This was being worked on by Traeger to resolve the issue and hopefully would be available within the next few days..This apparently affected all Ironwood models and Pro models and that at the current time, they could use the WiFire. Going onto some of the other Traeger forums, nobody else seems to have this wifire issue? Can anyone please confirm that this is an outstanding issue and hasn’t been fixed yet that I will have to wait until the fix is sorted out or is there anything else I can do to get it resolved? Thank you..
Regards Raymond
PS there is no option on the grill for me to ‘forget the network’ ...presumably because the grill is in the middle of ‘downloading files’
