@Shaun on this thread:
https://forum.duet3d.com/post/107352

It appeared that you were at the point where the wifi module was working. what changed since then?

Let me clarify, WIFI now connects when i run M552 S0 then M552 S1. Webconsole also responds pretty quickly.

Thats just it, i started checking the settings as per the links sent to me when i lost connection to the web console. Wifi light was then slowly flashing on and off. Thought it was my router and checked everything. Eventually plugged the board into my PC and ran some checks. The researched the errors on the forums and tried everything i could. Nothing worked, wifi kept saying changing mode. ive posted the outputs and ive now even re-installed the firmware and the WiFi. Nothing seems to change.

Im happy to try anything else you want to throw my way.

What do you currently have in your config.g?

Still getting an error

Unrelated, but you're missing a space between the M350 and the axis letter.

I understand the frustration. Let's see if we can nail down the issue.

The config looks ok.

Can you send M587 by itself to get a list of saved SSIDs? This will confirm that the SSID has been properly added.

The error message network scan failed would indicate that it's unable to identify a network SSID in range to connect to and it's given up. In your other thread we did identify that the signal strength was rather weak. In order to diagnose if this is in fact the case, I suggest temporarily relocating the wireless access point or the printer so that they are both in close proximity with very little obstruction and seeing if you can then in fact connect.

Remembered networks:

ok

Signal is 100%

How do i clear any config for network. maybe a clean slate would be a good idea.

I have redone the config.

From the previous thread:

From the console can you please send the following:
M552 S0
M588 S"*"
M587 s"Spiffy" p"Password1"
M552 S1
M122
This will take the wifi module to idle, clear all saved SSIDs, re-add your SSID, and re-enable the module and hopefully connect. Then the diagnostic should show the connection stats.

I’ve done all of that, same problem. Ill set up my old router tonight and see if I can connect to that. Just in case it’s my current router.

Supply voltage: min 1.6, current 1.7, max 1.8, under voltage events: 0, over voltage events: 0, power good: no

Is it just me or are those 1.6-1.8V VIN indeed usable?

T3P3Tony

@themelle if just powering off USB (fine for WIFI tests) you don't need VIN

themelle

@T3P3Tony Ah ok, I see
(I thought powering off USB would show up as VIN around 5V)
Thanks for clarifying!

Shaun

OK so ive done the following.

Changed WiFi SID, no change
Changed WiFi Password. no change
Tried old router, no change

I get the same result each time.

Are you powering the board off USB now? If so what type of USB power supply are you using, could be its insufficient current from USB as the ESP8266 wifi module is somewhat power hungry.

T3P3Tony

@bearer don't think its that in this case, the ESP is reporting >3.3V VCC.

@Shaun thanks for the thorough investigation. What is not clear is if this is conducted from where it previously worked, or in your printer.

Nevertheless we should arrange a replacement, and test this board. Please can you submit a warranty request and reference this forum topic.

Have you tried re-flashing the WiFi firmware?

DC i have, all went through fine. Was one of the 1st threads i read on here where you suggested that.

FIRMWARE_NAME: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet FIRMWARE_VERSION: 2.03 ELECTRONICS: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later FIRMWARE_DATE: 2019-06-13b2

That doesn't say anything about the WiFi firmware version. If you already have DuetWiFiServer.bin in /sys and it is dated this year, you can just send M997 S1 to re-install it (even better, download a fresh copy from https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/2.03). Preferably, send that command from PanelDue or from a PC running YAT, then you can watch the progress and verify that it completes successfully.

If you have already done this, no need to do it again, fill in the warranty form. The hardware watchdog reset message in the M122 report suggests either corrupt firmware or faulty hardware.

Danal

Board swap is on the table form Duet... and may be a good idea... just to possibly avoid the time/hassle, try hooking up VIN (in addition to USB) to a solid 12V or more supply, and re-flash wifi firmware, and re-test, with that power hooked up.

These guys know MUCH more than I... but... something is just itching my brain about power, flash, wifi module, etc, etc, etc. Probably I'm wrong, but it is something quick to try, before getting into a full board swap.

Thank you Tony, believe me when i say i have tried everything i could find on the forums. I have tried this from every possible location including sitting right next to my router with my laptop. Like i said, im happy to try anything else you might suggest but i am now at a total loss.
