      If you know the exact name of the wifi network that needs to be removed, try using the full name.

              set it back to the router with no current net access .... and it reboots and connects to it just fine - it doesnt work ... but it connects to it ....

              So the netowrking connectivity to the non functioning network - is embedded on the board and I cant flush it out via the M588 "ANYTHING" command ... other options besides M588 ?

                I dunno... even with other networks remembered it should still be possible to add a new network and connect to it. Do you have another phone to test with?

                      Ive now tried this as well - M552 S0 and then restarting it ... Nothing seems to flush this things infernal memory.

                      M552 S0 ; Disable network
                      G4 1000 ; Pause Machine for 1000 milliseconds
                      M552 S1 ; Enable network
                      M588 S"EC24EA" ; Flush all known networks
                      M588 S"EC24F0" ; Flush all known networks
                      M588 S"*" ; Flush all known networks
                      M587 S"SM-N920PC3B" P"Ninya1" ; Configure access point. Connect to Android Phone Hotspot
                      ;M587 S"EC24EA" P"Ninya" ; Configure access point. Connect to Cox Wifi at 2.4Ghz
                      ;M589 S"DuetWiFi" P"9662" I192.168.1.101 ; Access Point Mode
                      ;M587 S"SMA iPad" P"Ninya2" ; Configure access point. Connect to Apple iPad Phone Hotspot

                      it still keeps connecting to SSID EC24EA if it is broadcasting/powered on and when it isnt - it just fails and does nothing

                        Hi,

                        I'm confused.

                        To connect the Duet to a "hotspot" you need to use "client" mode (M552 S1).

                        In this mode you use M587 and M588 to maintain the list of access point SSIDs you wish to connect to.

                        To allow a client device to connect directly to your Duet you need to use "access point" mode (M552 S2).

                        In this mode you use M589 to configure the Duet as an access point".

                        Which are you trying to do?

                        Frederick

                            thank you for your reply. Neither mode - client not access point is working for me. Its stuck in client mode and connecting ONLY to a network that is non functioning [ other than it broadcasting an SSID and taking connections its dns is not functioning ] ... Im trying to get this duet board to operate in either Access Point Mode or ... connect to my phones Hotspot - it refuses to do either

                              Can you confirm which firmware and wifi server you're running?

                                    In your last example you used M552 S1 before configuring the list of SSIDs. I think you would need to have M552 S1 after the list is correct.

                                    Try this:

                                    M552 S0
                                    M558 S"*"
                                    M557 S"desired_ssid" P"ssid_password"
                                    M552 S1

                                    That has always worked for me when setting a Duet as a WiFi client.

                                        tried this variant - still connecting to the old network [ im leaving it on only because it lets me know the wifi module on the board is doing "something" - otherwise the led just flashes and never blinks and then goes dark and stays that way ]

                                          You may want to try upgrading your firmware and wifi server to the 2.02 release. I think there was a fix for something for the access point mode. Check the release notes.

                                          You should be able to put the bin files on the SD card and add the update command to the config.g. but it really would be easier if you could get a console up.

                                            That sounds promising. There is no "Panel" option for the foreseeable future. How could I get it to update the firmware if I had the files on the SD Card ?
