@bearer
M587 gives me my SID, IP. gateway is 0.0.0.0 and subnet is 0.0.0.0
Can remember what M122 was. can get it as soon as i get home.
Latest firmware, as part of the troubleshooting i did was to follow the instruction to update both firmware from this link.

OK
So today ive started all over. literally clean slate. I am now able to get the wifi connected pretty quickly, the webconsole is responding nicely. only 1 problem... When i remove the board after shutting down Yat and powering it by the printer the wifi doesnt come back on. No blue light.
Ive had to actually edit the config.json to get this far. now from my eye everythign looks right.
Config.json:
"network": {
"enabled": true,
"mac_address": "",
"name": "CR10",
"password": "",
"ssid": "Spiffy",
"ssid_password": "nicetry", (not really my password)
"dhcp": true,
"ip": "192.168.0.20",
"netmask": "255.255.255.0",
"gateway": "192.168.0.1",
"protocols": {
"http": true,
"ftp": false,
"telnet": false
}M115:

@t3p3tony Are you technical support for the product?

@shaun said in Wifi/Web Console issues:
@t3p3tony I can only get it connected when i run YAT
M552 s0
m587 s"name" p"password"
M552 s1Then it connects, try the web console which honestly struggles. WHen i manage to get into the settings to confirm that M552 S1 is set in the config.g it returns a "make sure your device is connected"
When i shut down and then transfer to the printer, wifi doesnt even come on. I get no blue light once i move the board.
Ive cleared the saved details and then set them using M587, i have even tried DHCP and Static details.
Can you run M122, from YAT, one the wifi is connected. It should show what the DB of the wifi signal you are getting.
When you put it in the printer, is that now in a metal enclosure, or is the printer further form the wifi router?
-
Need to configure line endings in YAT or use another terminal btw.
when you start editing config.json its probably time to move off the web configurator and stick to only editing config.g as well; duet boards does not read config.json.
-
@Shaun I just see you have posted part of M122 above. If you set YAT to use the correct line endings you will get nicer output that wont be truncated.
Go to Terminal/Settings/Text Settings and change the EOL sequence to <LF>.
-
(OT, when YAT is the recommended terminal, I'd change the firmware EOL to be compatible with the default settings of YAT)
-
@bearer good point, or at least send both.
-
@t3p3tony Let me clarify, WIFI now connects when i run M552 S0 then M552 S1. Webconsole also responds pretty quickly.
When moving the board to the printer i power it without connecting it or placing it into anything. Simply laying it down in the foam from inside the shipping box. The wifi blue light doesnt even blink once.
Signal strength isnt a problem, i checked the strength many times as i use to have the Pi there without any issues.
Do you have any suggestions in getting the wifi fired up without having to send code to the board via YAT
-
@bearer I hear you, but i only managed to get a stable connection once i added her SID and Password to Config.json so its clearly reading from it. I dont have those details in the Config.g.

No.
@shaun said in Wifi/Web Console issues:

yes, thats correct, after you enter the details with M587 it is stored in the wifi modules flash memory. which is part of the reason the documentations tells you not to use M587 (to store wifi details) in config.g, the wifi module is not enabled at the time config.g is executed and saving the wifi details every time would put unnecessary wear on the wifi flash memory.

OK, so could you help me figure out why the wifi is not even coming on when i power the board? At which point is M552 S0 read from Flash?
-
M552 S0 = turn off networking, you do not want that in your config.g if you want networking.
config.g that contains this should connect if a ssid and pw is previously set.
; Network
M552 S1 ; enable network
M586 P0 S1 ; enable HTTP
M586 P1 S0 ; disable FTP
M586 P2 S0 ; disable Telnet -
@shaun said in Wifi/Web Console issues:
why the wifi is not even coming on when i power the board?
What is the power supply? Do the rest of the lights and everything else come on?
When it is powered by the PSU, can you connect via USB as well and send M122 with the correct YAT line endings and report what the diagnostic replies with?

Ill get this when i get home, PSU is as per vendor recommendations.
Red light by the USB power port, 2 more lights to the left of that. No blue wifi light.
-
Understood.
With the line endings of YAT changed we will be able to see the end of the diagnostic report which contains the wifi section. Without that we're kind of blind as to what's going on.
Can you also include the contents of config.g from the /sys folder on the SD card?
That contains your current configuration and what you will be editing going forward. It can be edited from the web interface once you can get reliably connected to it. Until then it may require pulling the SD card unfortunately.

Sure, when you set aside your assumptions as start doing as suggested. The output from M587 and all of the M122 output please.
