Wifi empty

ziggymanpopo

Well I'm stuck in scandone and the esp8266 stayed in idle mode after the M552 S1 command
It's saving the network and all other networks were removed once again at a loss but for some reason the thing isn't connecting. I know that the network is up I checked it with my phone. Yat working fine ...also blue led on constantly.

@ziggymanpopo maybe its time to upgrade the firmware

ziggymanpopo

What perplexed me is it says found network wiskers2. This is correct
But then two lines later it says no known networks found ????? Is it possible that no password was saved

@ziggymanpopo when it says its been found it means by a scan of the wifi networks, not that its saved in its memory

I believe the tncapefcc19 is the Wifi ver
And the ver2.02 (rtos) I k own its really old but it's been good and I'm not up to speed yet to kown how to update the firmware ...yet that gonna have to wait a bit

That's not the wifi version. To find the WiFi version, run M122 and look in the WiFi section of the report.

RRF 2.02 is really old so I don't know which version of the WiFi software is the most compatible, but most likely 1.27 is.

Wifi ver 1.22

Before what? Before you changed your router?

ziggymanpopo

Yes and the board is completely installed I'm thinking that I have the power on. do I need to shut down the printer when I try to save the ssid and password... maybe????? I believe the wifi assword isn't being save somehow???

ziggymanpopo

I also noticed the blue led is on when the printer is on might u have a conflict because with the power on the esp8266 is already fired off???

ziggymanpopo

My thinking was that in config.g already fires up the wifi

ziggymanpopo

Well that wasn't it either

SO FOR OTHERS TO HAVE THIS INFO!!!
After trying several things with the starlink router I did not have any success
I believe that starlinks router can't recognize that I'm working with 2.4g. Even though ther is a switch in ther programing to split out 2.4g.
How I overcame this was to get a network adapter for the starlink system...
Then plugged in a separate router that had band steering (linksys EA8300) which recognized I'm working with 2.4 g. Problem solved
Thanks again for the help guys !!!!
Hope this will help someone else down the line who is dependent on a starlink system.
