CONSTANT AJAX disconnect errors
-
Please upgrade to firmware 1.19.2 (both DuetWiFiFirmware and DuetWiFiServer). The WiFi module should have reconnected automatically if connection to the access point it lost, because that's what the manufacturer's firmware is configured to do. But during testing, I found it unreliable. So our own firmware now does a separate reconnect if that one fails.
The M122 report includes the number of reconnections done.

Downloaded files from here :

Location is from the wiki page..Uploaded. Both report the exact same as before…
Firmware Version: 1.19 (2017-08-14)
WiFi Server Version: 1.19
Web Interface Version: 1.19Are these 1.19.2 files hidden somewhere ?
Found them after searching the forum for the link
https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/v1.19.2Maybe update the wiki page to the link, right now it goes to 1.19
-
Latest stable releases are now always at https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/releases. Which wiki page links to 1.19 ?

Check you have [downloaded the correct firmware](downloaded the correct firmware) before installing it. The DuetWiFiFirmware.bin file should be the same size as shown on the github (currently about 300 KB in size).

3. If you are not able to reconnect by pressing the Connect button, please send M552 or M122 from USB and let us know whether it says the wifi module is connected to the access point, or is idle.
Mid print, system has disconnected for second time.
M155 from PanelDue states:
"WIFI module is connected to access point xxxxxx, ip address 192.168.2.32" -
Thanks.
Are you still able to ping the IP address of the Duet? If not, are you able to confirm on the status page of your router that the router agrees that the Duet is still connected?

So it disconnects from router but thinks its still connected -
Thanks. Does your router still think it is connected, or not? You will need to login to the admin page of your router from your browser to find out.

Router believes its dropped and no longer shows it on the client list.
M552 shows it still connected -
This looks like good info Jarery. Thanks!
I just finished configuring my new router, so now I am testing the first print on a completely new network. (I started from scratch)
-
Dare I say it?
24mins into a print and no disconnects, this is a record for me.
Ill be kicking myself if it was some network quirk on my network.

Hopefully it'll fix things for you. If it does, though, that begs the question of what is different about the WiFi board on the Duet Wifi (or it's firmware) in comparison to the other devices on your WiFi network that (I assume) continued to work well when the DuetWiFi was having issues.
I haven't yet upgraded past 1.18.2 yet. I used to have regular timeouts when I connected to the printer via it's DNS entry. Someone here suggested I connect to it via IP address, and it has been much more stable for me that way. I do still get the occasional disconnect, usually after a print has been completed and the system has been idle for 10 or more minutes.

Yeah, that will be the odd part. All my other devices have been perfectly fine. This includes several devices set up for remote access, via ports and etc, wireless printers, mobile devices, airplay stuff, etc…
My network hardware was getting pretty old, and I had been considering an upgrade so this was as good a time as any.
Print finished in 50 mins and I'm still connected. 2 hours of connection: 50mins print, and 70 mins idle. This is feeling pretty good.

M552 shows it still connectedThanks, that's very useful information. It sounds like we can't trust the status call of the ESP8266 SDK to tell us whether the WiFi is still connected to the AP. This is going to be a problem for us because the SDK is closed source. We may need to ping the router regularly to determine whether the connection is still alive.
Please confirm that you are running version 1.19.2 of both DuetWiFiFirmware and DuetWiFiServer, by looking at the Settings/General tab in DWC.

I’m at work and not in front of my printer to screenshot the data, but I can confirm both are displaying 1.19.2
-
Feel bad piling on here, but same timeout issues in 1.19.2 for me. I've checked everything with M122. Slightly poor connection (-58db) but otherwise there is nothing outstanding I can find. My experience sounds very similar to Keegan's.
Some other details:
• Disconnects when not printing
• Always a timeout error
• Stays connected for about 30 seconds on average
• Uploading or sending commands often causes it to disconnect (CPU issue?)
• Cannot re-connect after (requires hard reset on board)I was already getting a bunch of disconnects in 1.18 but I chalked that up to signal strength, but its gotten worse.
Let me know if there is any way I can help. -
Jumping in here, I thought I was having problems with my Duet Ethernet after accidentally giving the ethernet cord a hard yank on moving it but I've been having problems since upgrading to 1.19.x with disconnects. It could still be a hardware problem but starving the CPU is just as likely.
Is it safe to presume that this problem could affect Duet Ethernet, too?

AHHHHHHHH!!!! Last night with the new router everything went great! Then, without changing anything on the network today, I just started a print and got the exact same behavior I was having….

Pings to the IP address all fail. -
Thanks for that report. Net time it happens, please log on to your router and see whether it still shows the Duet as a connected client, and post the relevant bits of the M122 report again. The M122 says that the Duet is connected to the router, but I want to know whether the router agrees.
Are you using a static IP address, or DHCP?
-
Don't know if this will help you but whenever I can no longer access the web I can not ping the duet. I have been following this thread on and off and got the same (or very similar) issue. I have to verify what the router says.
