New Duet 2 Wifi Not Working
-
Hi I just got my Duet 2 Wifi with external antenna
.
I have been through the https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Guide/1.)+Getting+Connected+to+your+Duet/7 documentaion and installed all the drivers and followed the steps carefully.I cannot get the wifi to work at all, this is what I get in YAT.

okI double checked that I was connecting to the 2.4Ghz side of the Wifi and that I had the correct password and SSID and also added my other Wifi network just to be sure but it will not connect to either.
Am I missing something ???
Any help with this would be very much appreciated.

What's the output if you run
M587?

@oliof
M587
M587: Failed to retrieve network list
ok
M587 S"ASUS" P" ** 23Password23 ** "
M587: Failed to add SSID to remembered listOk I am officially lost now as I could have swore that when I run this last time it came back with (ok)
-
You can try
M552 S-1
M552 S0
M587 S"SSID" P"password"
M552 S1This resets the wifi module, then puts it in idle mode where you can tell it to add a WiFi and password to it's list of networks to try and connect, and then enables the wifi again.
If that fails, run
M122and post the output about wifi.

Is this stored on SD card or inside ESP8266?
-
That's stored in the ESP
-
nope not working either
M552 S-1

What does a plain

ahh now it is showing
Remembered networks:

VM2973955 IP=0.0.0.0 GW=0.0.0.0 NM=0.0.0.0
oknot sure where the TNCAP2FCC19 IP=192.168.1.14 GW=0.0.0.0 NM=0.0.0.0 came from

OK, so the M587 S... P... didn't complete.
Do you have quote marks, semicolons, or spaces in your WiFi password? They might mess things up.
Also, I remember now that with YAT you have to set the line ending to LF, maybe that'll help.
-
yes I have double * at the start and end of my wifi password e.g ** 23password** but no spaces. I have got the YAT settings set to LF as the Getting Connected to your Duet webpage tells you to do.
The only thing I haven't done is updated any of the firmware.
I literally unpacked the Duet2Wifi controller out of the box.
connected it to my pc via the supplied USB cable.
Installed the Drivers, YAT and did the text settings and set the line ending to LF.
Continued to follow the Getting connected to your Duet guide all the way till I couldn't get it to connect to my wifi.The SD Card that came with the Duet2Wifi I take is pre setup as it has all the folders in there and I copied over my reprap config files to the /sys folder.
-
I suggest you run this from YAT:
M552 S-1
M552 S0
wait until you get "WiFi module is idle"
M588 S"*"
that deletes the remembered list
M587 S"ASUS" P"<your password>"
M587
check that the output from that command has just ASUS in the remembered list
M552 S1
and see whether it connects.Is the SSID of your network definitely just ASUS ? Is it transmitting on 2.4GHz? Many routers use different SSIDs for 2.4GHz and 5GHz.

WiFi module is idleMy 2.4Ghz Wifi is definitely called ASUS as I setup the router and the 5Ghz side is called ASUS_5G lol simple I know but it works and the SSID is hidden so would that make a difference ?
-
You say "no spaces" but your posts here do have spaces after the stars.
-
@nophead yes I had to put them in as it changes it from looking like P" ** 23password23 **" to P"23password23"
-
The "No known networks found" message means it couldn't find a 2.4GHz network with SSID ASUS that is not hidden.
If you have configured your router to hide the SSID, you should be able to connect by sending M552 S1 P"ASUS" instead of just M552 S1.
It could be that the WiFi signal is too weak. I suggest you use your smartphone to scan for wifi networks in the vicinity of the Duet. Check that is reports the network ASUS, that it says the frequency is 2.4GHz, and that it has a good signal strength.
Is the Duet on the bench, or fitted into a printer?
-
M552 S1 P"ASUS"
ok
WiFi module is connected to access point ASUS, IP address 192.168.254.43Thank you all so much for your help and Thank you dc42 for working out what it was I will gladly buy you a beer if you are ever in my area.
Just a quick side question would you recommend that I update all the firmwares to the latest version or run on the current ones that I have.

You can update to the latest set of firmwares by uploading this zip file as is to the settings page.
