Orbi 970 and Carrier Infinity Touch Thermostat Model SYSTXCCITC01-A do not talk
Up graded router to new obri 970 and now Carrier Infinity Touch thermostat will not get on line. Have tried loT and main networks. Still no luck.
- Read comments about a different thermostat and router and they used a $20 TP-link Access Point from amazon. TL-WA801N.Got it today and solved the challenge! Thanks all for the help!
WPA2 only option . Turned to none and still no luck.
IF thats happening, then there is some incompatibility between these branded controllers and this Orbi system.
what actual error is the carrier giving you when you attempt setup?
Was looking back and didn't see it.
Is it able to see the wireless ssid?
Are you using any special characters or spaces in the SSID or password? Some sketchy IoT like thermostats have issues with special characters or spaces.
Error message: Unable to connect. Please check your password and network connectivity.
No special characters in SID or password
When asking thermo to find available networks, SID shows up as one.
Spent 1 1/2 hours on phone with Carrier tech and all she could conclude is that this version (A) has been replaced with the B and maybe it would be compatible. Hate to spend the $1,200 and find it is not.
got an old router around? You could connect it to the orbi with the old router in access point mode. See if the carrier connects to that
