Long enough you didn't need to activate it before it would work? They now have wifi and you must connect to internet to activate them, at least last couple I was involved with did. Kind of a pain if in location with no internet, last one I think I used my phone as an access point to do this, but someday will probably be in a place with no cell service. Might be a way to manually enter some code but haven't gone down that road yet.
Stupid deal with that activation.
But, if you’re ever out of cell range, you can just copy all the info (if you know what is required) and go somewhere else and activate it.
Then you just enter the code they send you and enter into the generator.
The generator doesn’t actually have to have a signal.
It was a little confusing at first, but it’s not the same as the WiFi setup you can do, so the customer can do……I don’t really know what with their phone vis-a-vis the genny.
