User Centre + widget not auto updating (Android)
I've got the User Centre + data widget (consummation 4*1) on my home screen and it doesn't seem to update itself...is this normal? Even if I tap the widget which takes me to the app's data status screen, it still won't update to match the app's info. My mobile data is always on, wifi often, data saver off, phone & storage permissions enabled. P30 Pro on Android 9.

Hi,
Below, all the disadvantages to have bridge mode ON:
1- The advanced features of the Helix terminal are disabled (Parental control, Band Steering, etc.)
2- Helix Fi application is not functional
3- Our Wi-Fi relays cannot be used
4- No support during a problem with the Helix TV channels and / or the Wi-Fi network
Hope it clarifies.

Hi !
I have an Orbi mesh.
If I put the Helix Gateway to Bridge Mode, will the Helix TV Terminal still access the Gateway?
What if I connect the Helix TV Terminal to my Orbi Mesh instead...that would work?
And how would I go about changing the network on my Helix TV Terminal to my Orbi Mesh?

Hello mcicc!
If the Heilx Gateway is in Bridge mode, Helix TV terminals will no longer access the Gateway's Wi-Fi. Instead, it will be necessary to manually connect them to your own router's Wi-Fi.
Any router-type device that has the capacity to provide a Wi-Fi network and an IP Adress (which means it can act as a DHCP server) should work.
Here is the procedure to manually connect a Helix TV terminal to a specific Wi-Fi network :
1. Press and hold the "Exit" button on the remote for 5 seconds
2. Press the "Down" arrow twice
3. Enter the following digits : 9, 4, 3, 4
4. Select the desired Wi-Fi Network and press OK/Select (round button in the middle of the remote)
5. Enter the Password and confirm
6. The Helix TV terminal should connect to the Wi-Fi network.If you need further assistance, do not hesitate to contact our Technical Service by phone or online chat. You will find our contact info at the following page : http://www.videotron.com/residential/contact-us
Have a great evening!
- JMRoyInitiateHi,
Is it possible to deactivate the helix wifi without using the bridge fonction and would it be a good way to use a Velop system without loosing the helix voice functions?- CedrikSModerator - Solution Expert
Hi JMRoy,
The reason to get the Helix gateway is to have WiFi and also a wired connection with the ethernet ports. The only way to override this would be the bridge mode with another router.

Hi mcrootay. We strongly suggest you reach our technical support department so they can verify this app, what version you have and what can be done to fix it: < http://bit.ly/FB_Contact_Us >. Have a good day!

Chatted with tech support, they said the issue with the data widget not updating is on theirs (Videotron's) side

Seems you have the version of the user center that released too early with the widget as is it not yet officially released.
