Last night we experienced the variant of this problem mentioned by Ben’s 2024/05/02 post.
A drummer’s phone was having “Discovery” problems seeing and SQ-5 in the connection menu.
Scenario:
Two mixers (SQ-5, CQ20-B) were connected to a basic NetGear WiFi router.
The band’s Drummer COULD NOT SEE SQ-5 in the connection menu of his android phone’s SQ4You app.
He was the only performer needing SQ4You. This was his first time connecting to an SQ-5
and the first time using SQ4You. He had downloaded the SQ4You app yesterday.
While debugging, he COULD SEE AND CONNECT to the CQ20-B via CQ4You. This implies that the
connection through the router was not likely the source of the problem.
The only two others connected via WiFi were using SQmixPad. These were
– First Sound Engineer (Me) via android tablet
– Second-Sound Engineer via IPAD
While debugging, the two sound engineers WERE ABLE TO CONNECT to the SQ-5 via SQ4You. We each
also walked through the steps with the drummer on his phone. But the SQ-5 connection choice
was just not showing up.
We tried entering the IP address (from the SQ-5 networking screen) into the Drummer’s
phone’s SQ4You connection screen. This did not connect either.
