Ijust received 4.40 update a few mins ago. I'm still unable to connect to secured wifi. However, I'm able to connect to wifi if I set network security to "None". I just tried Spotify and it did work on my watch.

I bought a Garmin 245 Music yesterday. And I could set up Spotify and even sync one of my playlists to the watch. But for whatever reason, now that I want to download another playlist, when I choose it for download, watch tells me it cannot find Wifi. It does not give me any error codes, just a message that 'no internet connection'. But when I connect to wifi through Garmin Connect, there is a notification on the watch that connected to wifi. And I can sync the watch to my phone.


I have searched all the possible solutions for this issue which seems to go back to 2019. Wifi Security is WPA2, password length is more than 8 letters, and frequency band on wifi is 2GHz, SSID broadcast, etc. Also, did reset the watch quite a few times and it is fully updated. But no solution to this very annoying problem.


So, if somebody from Garmin is reading this, then please note that as somebody who has just switched from polar to Garmin, you have left me with no choice but to go back to Polar! Don't add features that are beyond your technical abilities. My Polar watch was M400 which is a very basic one compared to FR 245. And I am not even into listening to music while running, but thought now that they have added it for an extra 50 quids, then why not? And now I regret my decision to buy a Garmin watch.


I fixed the issue with my tactix delta after having the same problem. It's just a matter of changing the security on your network to WEP 128, and since then my Garmin can connect to dedicated 2.4 network, i have the other band 5g separate and the watch will not even pick it up as network. So change the setting and you solved the problem.


After screwing around for a long time with a non syncing music 245 (which worked great for the first 3 months) the secret answer is just connect your watch to your mobile phone's wifi (hotspot). With the downgraded security my Garmin watch now syncs like it should. I've been running without music for weeks with my music watch.


Garmin please get your you know what together and fix this. Or at least send everyone a message who has an account. This would take you a few minutes to prevent a lot of customer trouble and poor feedback.


As I wrote a year ago in this thread, using wifi hotspot without any security was the only thing that worked for me. Unfortunately, Garmin does not care too much about consumer experience, so they won't do anything about this obvious defect...


Same happened to me this evening. I just received my new 945 I exchanged for a bad button. I haven't sent the old one back and it connects fine. New watch error code 0105. I had to go into Express, remove my WiFi, installed again and it took.


Hi, when I create a route in Strava, Starred, I find the route on my Garmin gps under Strava routes but I cannot start it. I get the message trouble connecting to the server error code 2050. Anyone any idea ? Ilse


I have purchased a Garmin Venu watch for the main reason to be able to download music to my watch so I don't have to carry my phone when I go for a run. When trying to download music to my watch, I get the WiFi error connection code 010.


I see on a number of threads that this seems to be a common issue. Has anyone been able to find a solution to this problem? I would be super disappointed if I've gone for the more expensive Garmin product because it stores music to find out that the feature doesn't work.


Hello! Could I have you try a hard reset on the device (Press and hold the top right button till the screen goes blank, ignore anything that pops up. Let it sit off for a full minute and then turn back on the watch) and then try again to download music onto the watch. Have you set up the Wi-Fi in Garmin Express or through the Garmin Connect app?


Hi Isabella. Thank you so much for your response. I set up the WiFi in the Garmin Connect app. I have done as you've suggested & it seems to be working. Fingers crossed it works when I get home & am able to test the music with my blutooth headphones.
