Congrats on your new toy! Yeah, Traeger has upped their game considerably. Their new products are solid beasts. Also, I hate Wi-Fi on cookers, HATE. For the reasons you mention. They always seem to have these kinks. I have 2 cookers that have the capability and I only ever set it up for review purposes, to make the review complete, and had nearly the same trouble you describe, and they weren't Traeger devices. I do not use it, I simply hate it.

I'm now glad our internet was crap when I got mine and declined the WiFi upgrade. -
Thank you.
I completely understand your aversion, however, the advantage I have seen with Trager over pretty much every other modern appliance I have ever seen (not cooker specific as no one send me review devices. lol) is that if you just use it on the Smoker itself, if you just ignore the WiFi etc. It is still completely useable and the Grill overrules any weird stuff from the App.
It actually working flawlessly would be better obviously, but this is still a huge advantage.

That's a sweet rig. Can't wait to see what you turn out with it! Sam the Cooking Guy on Youtube has the same rig and does some great things with his.Comment
