I purchased a Dlink DCH S160 Water Sensor. We’re expecting a lot of rain and I wanted to monitor my basement. I expected to spend 10 minutes to set it up.

WELL…. Thanks you pointed headed idiots at Dlink.. I’m now into 90 minutes and no stinking connection.. They have really cute graphics on the app BUT I DON”T WANT CUTE GRAPHICS.. I WANT A WORKING WATER SENSOR!!!!

Let’s start with the packaging. The way I opened it caused it to drop out of the packaging onto the floor.

How stinking hard would it be to make a web interface for it. You would think that the mydlink.com site would let me add it.. No, it’s hung up trying to shove a software update for one of my dlink cameras down my throat.

Oh, and to top it off, I uninstalled the app but google play won’t let me reinstall it thinking it is installed.
