 Hi

I’m the owner of a Tacx Vortex trainer. It is eqipped with a ANT+ Antenna (not a dongle). This one: Everything works fine with the TTS4, but in Zwift it won’t pair. It seems to find the ANT+ but not the rest. Any suggestions?

Me to. Do I need an alternative ANT+ dongle?

How new is the Vortex. Make sure it’s the new T2180 “Smart” model, or you wont be able to connect.
