      I have a Duet Mini Wifi that is not connecting. There is a green LED beside the wifi connection that normally flashes a few times at startup then is continuously on. Now it is not flashing at startup and there's no connection.

      It has been okay previously and I haven't made any changes recently. The wifi in the area is good (-50, 3m), with other devices connectiong without any problem.

      Is there a fix for this? Or a troubleshooting method? Or a workaround to get files onto the Duet. Otherwise my printer is effectively dead.

      Thanks in advance

        @TomF Sounds like config.g is not running at startup. Occasionally, particularly on older firmware versions, the config.g gets deleted. Check the SD card to see if it is there. If it has disappeared, see if there is a config.g.bak file that you can duplicate and rename config.g. If that doesn't exist either, you'll need to recreate your config.g.

        Then, it's best to update the firmware to the latest release. And backup the SD card sys folder.

          @droftarts Thanks! I checked and the config.g was indeed missing. I feel that is extremely weird but neverteless I was able to restore my saved backup and it's now woking. My releases are Firmware 3.4.1 and Server 1.26 Not that old, but they do need updating. I'll do that when I've cleared the backlog.
