Lack of 5GHz Wifi support and Died before 6 months
Overall it's a good scale but there are a couple things folks should be aware when purchasing this product:<br />1) The version I have (not sure if they have improved since) only supports 2.4GHz Wifi network. I had to figure out where my 2.4GHz can hit and unfortunately my bathroom is out of the range. I didn't want to by a Wifi extender just for this scale and I don't want to place it in the livingroom where the wifi router is. It's tricky.<br /><br />2) After 5.5 months, the scale started to show &#34;ERR&#34; after you step off and after the &#34;THINKING&#34;. I've searched online and noticed it's a very common problem. I contacted Fitbit support and after a few troubleshooting cycles, they decided to send me a new one. From other people say online, this is what happened to them, too. Fitbit just sends the replacement for this problem and they can't seem to find out why yet.<br /><br />[NEW UPDATE] After 2 years, the device stopped syncing with my WIFI even if I tried several times to reset it. At the last step of pairing, it continues to say &#34;WIFI ERR&#34; even if my wifi is 2.4GHz and supports 802.1.b/g/n. I give up. Time for Bluetooth scale.
