    I've only used mine twice and both times I didn't put the meat probe in right.  First time, I hit bone and the temp went wild.  Second time I didn't put it in the center of the meat, a 14 lb brisket is not done after 4 hours...

    Purchased and set-up a Flame Boss 200 today and it works great.  I am not super tech savvy but had no problem setting the unit up, connecting to the wifi and then connecting to my iPhone.  All this took about 30 minutes  I played with the temp and the grill before putting on some brats tonight letting the FB200 set temperatures at 250, 325 and 400.  I let the controller stabilize at each temp and dial into a stable point.  I plan to do a brisket this weekend to give out first live run.
    XL BGE, Akorn and one very old Ducane...

    I had some minor issues with setup. Maybe this will help:

    Thanks for the responses. I called Flame Boss and spoke with Kyle. Suggested I reboot my router, now working great. Don't know why I didn't try this first. DUH Thanks again

    Thank you for following up with your resolution!  Glad it was resolved.
