What Should I Do If My Garmin Cannot Find Any WiFi Networks?
First, make sure that your Garmin is within range of a functioning WiFi network. The usual range for a standard home network is about 150 feet. Try moving your Garmin closer to your router, or if you’re having trouble with your home network, try moving your Garmin to a location where you know there’s a working network, like a coffee shop or a library.
Second, make sure that your Garmin is properly connected to the correct WiFi network. The easiest way to do this is to use the default network name and password for your router. If you don’t know this information, you can usually find it on a sticker on the router itself, or you can look it up online.
Third, make sure that your Garmin is not in airplane mode. This can be a common problem for people who are trying to connect to a WiFi network while they’re in a plane, and it can usually be fixed by simply turning off airplane mode.
