duet 2 the wifi only works when plugged into usb
-
If it's working when USB is connected you could either use the USB port to provide the 5v, or use the external 5v input connection to supply 5v.

@Phaedrux @dc42 well i now unhooked everything else from the board and tried a different sd card and now wifi just times out even when used plugged into usb

Do you get any errors?
Can you send M122 and post the results?
Can you share your config.g? -
@jcwild try reinstalling the WiFi firmware. If that doesn't fix it then the WiFi module may need to be replaced.
-
M997 S1 to reflash the wifi module.

@Phaedrux @dc42 just reflashed the wifi and it does the same, just times out again. here are m122 result and config.gm122 result.txt config.g

@jcwild you are running a very old version of RepRapFirmware. Furthermore, it is a beta version, so it is liable to contains bugs that are fixed in the release version. Please upgrade at least to RepRapFirmware 2.05.1 which you can find at https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/2.05.1.
The beta version of DuetWiFiServer that you are running is much more recent and we have not tested it with such an old version of RepRapFirmware. I suggest you install version 1.23 which you can find via the same link.

Your config.g file has syntax for RRF3 but the M122 shows it running RRF2. That can't be the config you were using before.

@dc42 ok now where can i find the iap4e file? why are all these files so badly spread out and not just pre compiled into an sd card image?
-
@dc42 just updated to exactly what you linked and same deal. timing out

Typically updating is done with the pre-made zip file via DWC. But that zip file also contains all the files needed for that release including the iap files.

What error message do you get?
Can you send these commands one at a time and report the response you get?
M552 S-1
M552 S0
M552 S1
M997 S1
M588 S"*" ; this will clear all saved SSIDs and passwords
M587 S"Network-ssid" P"Password123" ; re-add your ssid and password -
