I would like to connect my ifd 440 to both ifd 100 and stratus 3. My goal is to get traffic and weather on the ifd 100 as well as being able to control flight plan changes. Is this possible, and how do you configure the wifi?

You can't get traffic and weather from a Portable device on the IFD devices (440 or 100).

If you want Foreflight to connect to the IFD440 to transfer flight plans, and also to the Stratus, you set the IFD440 in remote Mode and connect it to the Stratus network. You also connect the iPad to Stratus. ForeFlight can then see traffic and weather from Stratus and exchange flight plans with the IFD440. You can switch back and forth between ForeFlight and the IFD100 on the IPad.
