TGIF Network switched to new server
Posted: Sun Apr 25, 2021 1:17 pm
Good morning,
I saw a Facebook post that TGIF has now switched over to their new "prime" server and retired the "legacy" server. Changeover happened around 6am Central Daylight Time (11:00 UTC) and may have interrupted some users' connections. TGIF requires a hotspot password now, similar to BM. I had a repeater link and a bridge for one of the talkgroups I assist with (707) that broke until I put the new hotspot password on.
I wanted to post here in case folks are wondering why their previous TGIF connection stopped working all of a sudden. The URL for Prime did change to be the default "tgif.network" so if you were previously using a hotspot password with "tgif.network", or the "legacy" server, it should continue to work with no reconfig.
