Index Scale no longer connects

Has anyone fixed this yet?

I‘m unable to connect to WiFi. 
Tried all the suggested fixes splitting the WiFi signal, using the stick, using hotspot, resetting etc. 

Something clearly happened a couple of weeks ago. 

Come on Garmin the forum is littered with dozens of similar posts. 

  • Well yes... but it seems after that it tries to connect to gold.garmin.com and then nothing happens...

    I don't know what does gold.garmin.com ...

    I did a full reset, use provider dns > no change...

    Now I'am using my internal DNS with google as forwarder (tried with a lot of DNS as forwarder) > no change
    I'm using my internal DNS to alias the clock.garmin.com name :)

  • So, at the end, it doesn't really seems related to 1.1.1.1 ...

    There is some issue on Garmin infrastructure...

  • Yep I did that too, aliasing clock.garmin.com but it doesn't solve the problem.
    I see a query to gold.garmin.com but after that nothing...

  • There is 3th domain also, api.gcs.garmin.com. 

  • After I changed Pihole settings to Quad9, zero problems after that. 

  • As I did a full reset it doesn't go further than gold.garmin.com ...
    Anyway today my 5 years old Index scale is a brick ...

  • DNS change nothing for me...
