"Bad reply format version." Not sure how to proceed.

Thanks for the reply. I'll give it a go in the morning.

@Veti So I went through the steps of Fallback procedure 1 and replaced the binary files by wasn't able to issue a M997 S0 command to install the firmware.

>>> M997 S0
SENDING:M997 S0

Disconnected.

Continued anyway with an M115 and confirms 2.05

So I ran an M997 S1 to install the WiFi module firmware:

Upload successful

However I still get "Bad reply format version"

@itslikeboo said in "Bad reply format version." Not sure how to proceed.:

So I ran an M997 S1 to install the WiFi module firmware:

make sure that you are actually uploading the wifi firmware that comes with the 2.0.5.1 release
just to make sure just place the DuetWiFiServer firmware on the sd card again and upload again

make sure its named DuetWiFiServer.bin

itslikeboo

@Veti Just wanted to thank you for helping walk me through this.

I grabbed the Duet2Firmware-2.05.1.zip file from https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/2.05.1

Copied the:

Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin
DuetWiFiServer.bin
iap4e.bin

into the sys directory on the sd card and replaced it into the board. Hooked up and connected to pronterface with the same messages in the console unfortunately.

Veti

now run M997 S1 again

I did it once more and when I gave the M587 command, it displayed the network. But then when I gave it again, back to the error.

configure your network again

Looks like it goes in and out or something.

Veti

just to make sure that its not a problem with the remembered networks

send
M588 S"*"

and do
M552 S0
M587 S"your ssid" P"your password"
M552 S1
again.

also does your network or password contain any special characters?

itslikeboo

M588 gives:

Network name contains a hyphen and underscore.

Veti

can you temporarily make your wifi network unencrypted and try again?

itslikeboo

I don't think I'll be able to do that, at least for a little bit. There are some people on the network.

I'm not sure why the wifi module won't reset. That command has worked before. When I connect to pronterface and get

"ok T0:26.7 /0.0 B:26.7 /0.0"

every now and then before jumping back to

"WiFi reported error: no known networks found
WiFi module is idle"

does this indicate a hardware problem?
I'm not sure if it's related but this version of the board has the external antenna. Also if it's of any help, when I first configured the board for RepRapFirmware 3, I couldn't get the DIAG pin to turn off. Not sure if it's relevant.

Veti

@itslikeboo said in "Bad reply format version." Not sure how to proceed.:

"ok T0:26.7 /0.0 B:26.7 /0.0"

that is just temperature status.

there is a problem with the wifi has problems connecting to modern routers

Interesting. Well that would suck. I'll try to look into it. Maybe late tonight I'll mess with the network. But wouldn't an M588 S"*" command still work? I've never even connected to the network once.

M588: Failed to reset the WiFi module to factory settings

it sometimes helps to reset the wifi module with M552 S-1 M552 S0 before M558 and before M557

@bearer Ok, thanks, I'll give it a try

M552 S1 should turn on wifi and you should be good?

(M552 S1 is all you need in config.g as well)
