What should I do if my GPSMAP 67i doesn't recognize the Wi-Fi connection


If your GPSMAP 67i is not recognizing the Wi-Fi connection, you can follow these troubleshooting steps:

1. Restart the Device: Hold the Action Button for about 15 seconds until the device powers off, then press it again to turn it back on. This simple restart has resolved similar issues for other users[1].

2. Check Wi-Fi Frequency: Ensure that your Wi-Fi network is configured to operate on a 2.4 GHz frequency, as the GPSMAP 67i does not support 5 GHz networks[1].

3. Update Software: Make sure your device's software is up to date. You can check for updates using the Garmin Express application[2].

4. Re-add the Network: Go to the settings on your GPSMAP 67i, select Wi-Fi Networks, and attempt to add your network again. If it does not appear, try moving closer to your router[4].

5. Remove and Reinstall: If problems persist, consider removing the device from any connected apps (like Garmin Connect) and then reinstalling it[1].

6. Proximity to Router: Sometimes, being too far from the router can cause connectivity issues. Try connecting in a different location closer to your Wi-Fi source[1].

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the connectivity issue with your GPSMAP 67i.
