Duet WiFi Access Point setup problems

OK, leave it with me - I'm having problems starting AP mode too.

@dc42 Thank you. Just let me know if you need me to try anything else. The Duet WiFi is so much superior and configurable to what I had I'll live with my current process of hitting my macro a few times for now. With the awesome Paneldue at least I don't have to connect USB to send commands.

@AKLiving, please try installing DuetWiFiServer.bin version 1.23beta1 from https://www.dropbox.com/s/gkb6rulcayiqjcm/DuetWiFiServer.bin?dl=0 and let me know whether it fixes the problem.

If you need to use YAT to get debug info, go to Settings->Text settings and set the line ending to <LF>. That will result in better formatting of the debug info.

After 2 reboots it is now working. It allows me to have 2 devices connected at the same time too! (iPhone and laptop with win10) I’ll cycle it a few more times on Monday and let you know how it’s going.

Thanks, I'll wait to hear from you again.

@dc42 It has been working without a single failure to connect. Thank you very much.

Thanks for the feedback. I included this version of DuetWiFiServer with the RRF 2.03beta1 release. So anyone else having the same problem can pick it up from the 2.03beta1 release area.

I'm having similar problems with AP mode:
on every reboot
I need to open Pronterface,
force M552 S0,
force M552 S2 a few times (normally 3),
than AP mode goes on and everything works.

I'm on latest stable, 2.02.
I also tried to add
M552 S0
G4 S5
M552 S2
in config.g, thinking it may be a question of time to wake up for AP mode. No joy.

So:

should I update to 2.03beta1 or 2.03beta2?
should I update DuetWifiServer.bin only, or Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin too?

My config.g and SETNETWORK macro attached
thanks!

If you want to stay on firmware 2.02 then you can just upgrade DuetWiFiServer to version 1.23beta.

@dc42 thanks!
I installed DuetWifiServer.bin AND Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin, 2.03beta1 (I installed before reading your answer!),
kept
M552 S0
G4 S5
M552 S2
and now access point mode works good!
