Trying to connect to my new to me Evolution mount using WiFi. I see it, I connect for a couple seconds, I then get "no internet connection". So for kicks i plugged in a Skyportal WiFi adapter and same results. I know the skyportal WifFi worked a while back on another scope so pretty sure it's not the Evolution. Something to do with unsecured network? Probably something dumb I'm sure. Any help greatly appreciated!
