Couldn't get past the setup
I ordered the Aria scale and was really excited when I received it. I ordered a Belkin WeMo at the same time so decided to configure both devices at the same time, first up was the WeMo. The entire set up process took me about 2 minutes and everything worked perfectly with my home network (AirPort Extreme + Express extenders). Then I tried to configure the Aria and the horror began... Everything seemed to go smoothly until I got the dreaded WiFi ERR message, no other information on what went wrong, I tried everything from changing my WiFi network type to 802.11b/g/n to b/g to only b. I looked at the fitbit website where they provide no information whatsoever about the possible causes of this error. After looking around for a couple of hours I find out that the scale is only compatible with 802.11b networks (14 year old technology, capable of 11Mbit/s speeds), I tried to setup a separate 802.11b network to keep my home network running smoothly, checked it reached the scale at 40% signal strength (scale's network was at 50% according to my MacBook) and still got the WiFi ERR message.<br /><br />In short, one of the worst products I've ever bought, now I have a really expensive scale that displays weight in pounds (I'm used to kilos). Returning it ASAP.
