Constant 'connection interrupted'
-
seems like high packet loss.
-
Pretty much, as once the Duet drops off the web interface keeps trying to reconnect
-
Maybe the Duet is running out of connections as a result of a lossy link and reconnects? But the pattern is similar in OPs capture (just a fraction of mangled packets).
Debugging the wifi or just improving the signal quality is the lowest hanging fruit as i see it.
-
One of my tests when I had these issues was to put an access point right next to the Duet - didn't make a difference. Signal levels also seemed good (around -60dbm). At the same time I was having connection issues, a pi zero W with a camera that watches my printer did not have any connection issues.
Of course this was only my situation at the time (and I did not run wireshark) and so might be completely unrelated. -
@jens55 You had -60 dbm with AP next to the duet? Would be on the low side then.
-
There is such a thing as too close when it comes to radio stuff.
But given its not a common issue I'm more inclined to think its triggered by environment or setup. The more info we can gather the easier it would be for devs to pinpoint and fix
-
Sorry, to clarify, the (around) -60 dbm was the normal setup and not with the access point right next to the printer.
-
@bearer Only thing having issues is my Duet, everything else Wi-Fi related is fine. I have a wireless camera on the printer using the same SSID and it's OK. Definitely the Duet, likely the wifi module as Phaedrux suggested.
Nothing changed on the network environment and life was hunky dory until firmware and Duet web interface upgrade. If i get chance over the weekend I will look to go back to an earlier setup
-
I couldn't roll back to the old firmware, but I put my machine in AP mode and found that it does not drop the connection like it does in client mode. It does do something weird every hour- I get messages about a possible virus attack on the console. Here's the console text including results of M122:

@mrehorstdmd
Do you have any anti virus software on your PC?https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/18054/virus-warning-message/2?_=1606098311359
-
@mrehorstdmd what is the 192.168.0.154 host? it certainly seems like its got some sort of malware looking for exploits
-
192.168.0.154 is the laptop that is connected to the Duet. Windows defender and Malwarebytes didn't find anything.
-
@mrehorstdmd well in some cases it's the av software that's sending some packets that are making it puke. Not sure if that's the case here though. Try disabling malwarebytes.
-
didn't see packets like that in the first wireshark capture where it did go wonky. (not sure if non-unicast traffic would be captured though)
netstat -o -m | find "192.68.0.254:80"should list he PID for the process behind the request andtasklist /FI "PID eq 1234"should find the executable name (replacing 1234 with the actual process id from netstat)downside is you have to run the commands when the its being sent so tricky to do on once in a while stuff without getting more creative.

Malwarebytes wasn't running when those messages were generated. Windows might have been doing it...

Probably missing the IAP files from RRF2. Try grabbing iap4e and iap4s from the 2.03 release and putting them in sys. Then try uploading the full 2.05.1 release zip.

Well at least that means the module is probably OK.

Maybe. That would seem aggressive for Windows Defender.

if hes running 3.1.1 then he would need the IAP files from 3.1.1 to downgrade to 2.05.1 if thats the issue.
-
Replacement Wi-Fi module has arrived, will look to get it installed in the next couple of weeks (hopefully without frying the Duet)
Took 2 weeks to arrive from Germany, roughly $6CDN

Able to sign into in on my laptop, but still get drops
I noticed in the diagnostics that i do NOT see what I should, I see
WiFi Vcc 3.45, reset reason Unknown
rather than
WiFi Vcc 3.42, reset reason Turned on by main processor
"reason unknown" is normal for DuetWiFiServer 1.23. You should see "turned on by main processor" if running 1.24.
Did you try changing WiFi channel on your router?
-
Hi dc42
Yes I changed Wi-Fi channels and installed a Wi-Fi extender/booster next to the Duet. Sadly neither made any difference.
I was getting reset reason unknown on the previous version of DuetWiFiServer 1.21 (I think)
