      I am using the Duet wifi board v1.04. A few minutes ago, I went in to the config.g file to tweek one of the settings. I saved it and the board rebooted. When it came up, I could not connect to it. The blue light that is usually on the wifi chip is out. The only thing I changed in the config.g file was the bed prob definition.

      Anything I can look at, or am I just screwed?

        pull the sd card out and put it in your computer.
        you can edit the settings there and then put the card back.

          Editing the SD is not the issue. I did that successfully. The problem is that when I restarted the Duet, there was no wifi connectivity. (could not connect and the blue light does not light). Without the wifi, I have no way to control the board as far as I know.

          BTW, I did take the SD card to the computer and backed it up (as I always do when there might be an issue) and it was read fine. But, still, there is no wifi

            disconnect the power and connect to the duet over usb.
            then you can send the commands over serial and get more info.

              Well I said I successfully edited the config, but I didn’t realize that the config.g file was zero bytes after the save. I’ve been having some issues with loosing the connectivity quit often and I guess that happened during the save.

              I grabbed the config.g.bak but unfortunatly without my last setup for the probe. Oh well. Set it up once, I can do it again.

              Thanks for the suggestions.
