      What have you done leading up to this? I saw in your past posts some comments about changing firmware versions, could you detail what was done with regards to that?

        I just tried a few different versions to see if it was caused by the firmware. I have tried
        1.18
        1.18.2
        1.19
        1.19.1
        1.19.2
        1.20beta11
        I could not get the wifi to work on any of those firmware versions.

        I just get:

        M587: Failed to add SSID to remembered list
        and

        M997 S1
        Trying to connect at 460800 baud: failed
        Trying to connect at 230400 baud: failed
        Trying to connect at 115200 baud: failed
        Trying to connect at 74880 baud: failed

          I have had this board since Aug, but I did not try to use it until last week. I had been busy and did not have my printer put together yet. I have built a Hypercube Evolution. Just trying to give any information that may help. It could maybe be something in my config.g as well. I am new to this board and got this config from another thread about a HEVO.

              If you were using USB power only at the time, try again with VIN power. Otherwise, ask for your Duet to be replaced or repaired - sounds like it needs a new WiFi module.

                I figured it was probably that. I have read through the forums and that seemed likely to be the problem. I purchased this board on August 11th, and did not take it out of the box until last week. I project got delayed and i was not able to work on it until recently. I have been talking to my supplier(Filastruder). I am waiting for them to get a response from Think3DPrint3D, because I guess I am past the normal time for the exchange. I guess the six month warranty is only after November 14th purchases. The supplier has been very helpful and informative. I'm just a little frustrated because i have been excited to use this board on the HEVO that I have built, that ended up costing twice as much as i originally planed. At least i still have my trusty Anet A8. Ha ha ha. I do have a spare 24V ramps kit laying around, but i hope it does not come to that.

                  I replacement was approved. Thank you for your time and help. I would also like to thank Tim from Filastruder, for his work getting this issue resolved for me.

                        Just got this return, it seems the ESP8266 has developed an internal fault. It gets warm, not too hot to touch but noticeably warm. Can confirm the following:

                        SENT: M552
                        READ: WiFi module is disabled

                        SENT: M552 S1
                        READ: ok

                        SENT: M552
                        READ: WiFi module is being started

                        Issuing replacement.

                              Send M552 S-1 to reset the wifi module, then M552 S0. Then send M122 and check what wifi firmware version it reports in the network diagnostics.

                                  The WiFi module is stuck on starting. Copy the new DuetWiFiServer.bin file to /sys on the SD card in a PC, then put the card back in the Duet and try installing it using M997 S1 again.

                                      I just tried this or noticed this issue and sent M997 S1 to the board via YAt … wonder if it changes anything

                                        Trying to connect at 230400 baud:
                                         success       
                                        Erasing 4096 bytes...
                                        Erasing 24576 bytes...
                                        
                                        

                                        I should have checked the filesize when I downloaded the bin…

                                        Thanks !

                                        Yes, 24576 bytes is about 10% of the correct size.
