Hi

Scara begins to really work well!
a big thank-you

dc42

Thanks for the feedback, and for choosing the Duet despite the initial incomplete SCARA support.

Applied the patch.
Still have difficult time connecting via wifi. Router is reset to channel 6, no joy.

I have a dedicated laptop parked 3 ft away, Whats recommended method to have a wired connection., USB cable ?

@jarery, is it not connected ting at all, or connecting but timing out, or something else?

ESTIMULO

same problem, it get connected but in a few seconds connection timeout, connection reset, etc. if i do ping continually some are lost. That not happend on 1.18. Something with wifi is not as good as previous version.

Jarery

It does connect, but times out a lot.
I created a macro that turns the wifi module off/on just to help in reconnecting.

Once connected it stays connected for the most part, until I begin a print. Then it usually times out after a 10-20 min into a print.

Getting it to reconnect after the print is just a hit/miss process of restarting the wifi, hitting connect repeatedly, rebooting, etc. I log into my routers page and see the IP assigned, it just has a hard time opening in a web page (safari).

I have a main router in the room behind, about 10' away, and a second router as an access point half a house away. Both use same name/ssid and pass.

When it is connected, if you run M122 what RSSI does it report?

Jarery

Heres the network section

Network state is running

You have a very strong signal! I don't think I have seen a RSSI as high as -35 before.

You appear to have 2 active http sessions, which I think means you have connected from 2 different IP addresses. Is that correct?

Jarery

at times I've connected from a second laptop yes. But that is not always the case.
Much of the time I am only connected via the one laptop.
