Is there NO WAY to connect to DWC?????

Phaedrux

Yes, exactly. You'd need to remove the SD card from the Duet and put it in your Mac to edit the files on it.

I've attached a sample macro you can use. Edit it and change the M587 command to use your SSID and password and copy the file to the sys folder on the SD card. Then put it back in the Duet and reconnect by USB terminal. Now send the command M98 P"addwifi.g" which will run that file and execute your command and hopefully get you connected to the wifi network.

Contents of the file:

; Add default wifi network
;

M552 S0			; Disable network module
G4 S5			; wait 5 seconds
M587 S"NETWORKNAME" P"PASSWORD"			; Add duet wifi SSID to remembered networks list
G4 S5			; wait 5 seconds
M552 S1			; reenable wifi module

@corlissmedia you can also use this command to remove all remembered networks from the WiFi module.

M552 S0 ; set wifi to idle
M588 S"*" ; forget all networks

@phaedrux Thank you, I will try to do exactly what you’re suggesting tomorrow morning. But first I will try once more to verify the Ssid and password.

I do wish I didn’t have this Netgear AC1900 EX7000 extender.

@engikeneer are you saying I can use that code in SerialTools? My SerialTools doesn’t look like that. Are you using the colors feature to get that look? Thank you.

@fcwilt thank you, reading your post a few times has made it make more sense now.

engikeneer

@corlissmedia yes via serial tools.
The colouring is just me and the others using the code snippet tag on the forum to make it easier to read

@engikeneer to reveal my stupidity even more, what is "the code snipet tag?"

Above the area where you enter your post there are a number of icons.

The </> is the tag for used for entering code. You just click it and it will create a place to enter code.

Like this

this is some code

WiFi module is idle
WiFi module is connected to access point NETGEAR83, IP address 192.168.0.XX

OK, I get it that you removed the last two digits, although there's no reason at all to keep them secret.

So, after you get your machine to connect to your WiFi, can you connect using

http://192.168.0.XX/

in your browser?

If not, what does the message in your browser say

Of course, replace the "XX" with your secret numbers.

@phaedrux I unplugged my extender to see what that might accomplish. I’m looking at a 27” picture of DWC now. I’m logged on to the main 2.4G network in my house.

Up next, I’m going to pursue updating all of the files on the boards card to their current versions.

I unplugged my extended network this morning.

This is what happens when you practice KISS.

I'm thinking the IP address presented is what I've been looking for.

I guess I'll try to log on to it via Chrome, to see what happens.

Glad you've made some progress. If we had some more details about the extender and network in general we might be able to take a guess at why it wasn't working.

@phaedrux you're far too busy, and way too important and powerful for such work!

@jay_s_uk very clever! thank you!
