Hi, here is a suggestion about connecting your Versa to WiFi:

 

Go to settings in the Fitbit app and to Wifi settings and click on it. See if your network is present on this page, if yes: press the name of your network and enter manually the password of your router (Capital sensitive). When you have done this you will see on the right side of the name of your network there is a white icon. Click that and Fitbit will start connecting to your network. Once connected, the white icon turns to blue and it will say "Connected". does this mean that your Versa is also connected to your WiFi? No it is not and what's the reason for that? As the Versa by itself has no WiFi, it uses your phone or PC as a bridge to connect to WiFi when you need it to be. Therefore it's mandatory that your Versa is in the charger and connected to your PC. In this case when within the Fitbit app your Network is connected to Wifi, your Versa will also be. bur remember, the Versa will only be connected to WiFi as long it's in the charger and connected to your PC. Once you disconnect, your Versa will loose the WiFi connection within a very short time. Hope this gets you up and running regarding WiFi. Good luck.
