What Wi-Fi unit did you go to? I have a wireless router in my shop that will be very close to my smoker.

Maverick. You don't need a router. It produces and receives its own signal. Not sure of the range but I've never exceeded it at my place. The Bluetooth unit would cut out as soon as I went into the house.

Gotcha. Maverick is a radio frequency. I’ve got a maverick already.
Bought an outdoor gourmet from Academy that had two probes. Its works good for me, has it's own app for iPhone. Haven't had any issues with connection in my house with the smoker 50-60' away in the driveway. Think I played around $70 for it.
I have this ones. Work great, no complaints other than range. I get 30-40 feet.
The FireBoard is pretty awesome. You just need a WiFi signal where you cook. I can monitor from anywhere I get cell service on my phone. I think it has Bluetooth as well, but only use WiFi.
Let us know how it works. What a first world problem. "I don't want to have to be anywhere remotely close to my grill to check on meat temp." What a great time to be alive!
Side note, I am trying to convince my wife to let me buy a smoker with wi-fi so I can set it, then go on about my day, and be able to turn up or down the heat from where ever I am from my cell phone.
