Ok, so now I have a Bhyve XD faucet timer and the 2nd gen hub. The timer will still only connect via bluetooth to my phone. The water sensors still work fine, though. What am I doing wrong? Ok, so I just reset the modem. Re added the XD faucet, moved the hub to within 5ft of the timer and I’ve made some progress. But WTH? It still won’t connect!

In January, I was looking for an automatic wifi hose/faucet controller for an irrigation system I was planning and saw this. At the time, on Amazon, it didn’t specify that there were different generations of wifi hubs. It just said you needed a b-hyve wifi hub, which I had. I just found an open box controller on ebay for much less money than buying a gen 1 wifi hub, so I bought that instead. I wasn’t going to give Orbit any more of my money.
::My mistake. If I put the batteries in, run the set up it doesn’t find anything. If I hit the button 5 times it finds it, sets it up and when I select to start using the device, it briefly flashes a notification that my device is offline and the bluetooth connection (searching) pops up. And then the only way I can control it is via bluetooth.
