Manufacturers instructions were crap, this video explains it perfectly - many thanks!

[@chasjohnstone7047]

Done the trick for me after my dongle lost connection to growatt server. Thumbs up!

[@edmoremanzunzu1686]

I am failing to add my WiFi dongle. I bought a 6kva inverter and don't have a reset button. It's like the dongle is not working

[@IanJackson-ml2fg]

When I go to add the data logger it is asking me for a password to join. What password as this does not show on the video.

[@akeniklasson5664]

I have followed this instruction video to connect my Growatt datalogger but it fails every time! I tried both way to connect I can see and choose datalogger SN in my wifi connection but it always say No internet connection.I have ASUS ZenWIFI xd5 Router with Dual Band Smart Connection 802.11ax / WiFi 6 mode. I even tested to disable that mode and still got the same problem. I need feedback on what to do next!

[@tudorevans9306]

Very helpful thanks. I found connecting the standard way easier than hotspot.

[@deegesolar]

Glad we could have helped!

[@ollib.4682]

guys, the video is perfect. BUT if you stuck and try 50 x times plus try to set router to 40 Mhz and if available in china mode (something to do with range) Love is King Olli

[@user-hd8rq3zg7x]

3:29 can you help me please. Failing at the first hurdle of adding data logger. Blue light is solid and I scan the QR code. It scans but then displays ‘null’ and I can’t move on from there. Thanks. Based in UK

[@RebeccaMacSweeney]

[@ShubhamGupta-qo7ly]

I have shinex.... it stuck on connecting to server even routet internet speed is 200mbps

[@sloppygully]

When I try to open the datalogger list I get a pop-up that my account has no rights.

[@WXSTANG]

When I set Datalogger Configuration, I set SN and hotspot to the same name and it complains that "The cell phone and collector is not normal. Try to reconnect the wifi and click OK" I click OK, try to set the name and it repeats the same problem over and over.

[@majorek.9178]

Same. Did you fixed it?

[@alexandraverman2588]

Same

[@jcf828]

Shine wifi S does not work with a dual band router. You need a Shinelink S with Lan box and RF dongle

[@ulugbekyangiboyev4150]

Help me please. Datalogger no function

[@shazeemalichishty7322]

Thanks

[@deegesolar]

No problem 😊

[@ronaldnair7970]

I can’t get it connected. Please help

[@princesstaurusbaron7640]

I need some help here plz

[@craigwillock384]

Mine just keeps saying no data connection

[@princesstaurusbaron7640]

When I go to the wifi connection of the barcode it saying connected without internet

[@majorek.9178]

same for me, don't know what to do

[@salmanss999]

What is the difference between Standard and Hotspot internet connection in the App? Does it matter?

[@deegesolar]

They are just 2 different ways of connecting to the Wifi, it's good to know both just in case the other fails. Some customers have better luck with one than another.

[@MajorBunghole]

So what got me is that I know that my dongle can only connect to 2.4Ghz and when I go to use the connect to wireless network setting my app gives me a choice of 2.4Ghz network or 2.4 and 5Ghz network, there is no option to go straight to the hotspot set-up. Knowing that I can't connect to the 5Ghz network I didn't bother trying until I thought wtf, I'll see what happens if I use the 2.4/5Ghz choice. When I clicked on that it took me straight to the hotspot and from there I connected to the dongles network, JGCXXXX and logged into it using the 12345678 password which bought up the config page, chose the router closest to the inverter in my asus mesh system and then concreted to the 2.4Ghz band on that and bingo, it was connected to my network. There's one more thing you need to do to get real time power readings and that is to make sure you have put the power meters NMI number, (national meter identifier in Australia which is found on your electricity bill), otherwise it'll show its connected but you won't get any readings until your electricity number is input into the app.

[@neelsscheepers8841]

Connection to server keeps failing. Is there a separate server for south africa?

[@ganessens]

Hi , Have you managed to get a solution? I have the same issue. Im in cpt

[@googleaccount7977]

Same problem here in Netherlands. I think it is a server problem. I hope they find a solution soon.

[@JuiceyNinjaJ]

How do I find the password for the hotspot dongle? Its asking me for one

[@NigelPowell]

12345678

[@ulugbekyangiboyev4150]

Hello

[@helenekristineskoglund986]

I can't for the life of me find the reset button.

[@YumingHao]

The Password of the dongle is 12345678

[@andrewking9690]

Thanks. I found that the Hotspot password was not the same as the Serial Number, but 12345678.
