My brand new Godzilla premium pinball worked less than 2 weeks and now can't find wifi.
Can't find any wifi.

I know it's not a problem with my wifi as the phones tv's and Alexa all still have access to wifi.

When I have the QR reader read it flashes like normal and then says the game is offline.

Any ideas?

there's an option in the "Net" menu to rest the wifi adapter. try that first.

If that doesn't work, then replace the WiFi dongle. The ones that Stern use are really poor.

I use this one from TP Link.

Do you have to do something special to make this work? I tried two different sources of these and they don't work at all. The stern adapter comes up immediately, this one doesn't do anything.

I've had several failed wifi dongles in new sterns.

I just pay 30 bucks from Pinball life:

Damnit Amazon changed the link. You need a low profile dongle, N150 from TP Link (not the Nano).
