Can't connect to DWC
-
Hi,
Suddenly I can't connect to DWC..
If I hook up the board (Duet2Wifi) via usb and run M552 it says that it's connected to the wifi network but I can't connect to it via the browser, tried both Chrome and Explorer.I've tried to update it to the latest firmware but that didn't help..
Any ideas?

If unable to connect to your wireless network at boot up, try deleting all saved wifi networks with M588 S"*" (That is, using an asterix for the network name), then re-adding it with M587. For example, M587 S"networkname" P"password".
You can manually reset the wifi module if you have console access via USB, or a PanelDue. Send M552 S0, to disable networking, followed by M552 S1 to enable networking. -
@Phaedrux Hi,
I just tried that but it still doesn't work.
Got any other ideas? -
If it says it is on the network... can you ping it?
-
@Danal nope, "Destination host unreachable"

What does it actually say when you send those commands? Did it successfully clear the saved SSID list? Did it successfully re-add the SSID? Was it able to disable and re-enable the wifi module? Were any errors reported?

Reboot your router? It’s not always the Duet’s fault!

@Phaedrux After I deleted the network and re-adding it, I get this
m552 S1
ok<LF>WiFi module is connected to access point AF-House, IP address 192.168.1.189<LF> -
@Haggan90 said in Can't connect to DWC:
192.168.1.189
And you're unable to ping that address?
Have you set that address manually in your config.g?
What is the IP address of your own computer?
If you log into your router control page are you able to see the duet connected?
Can you post your config.g please? -

No I am not able to see the Duet on the router control page.This is my config file of the network part:
; Network
M550 P"My Printer test cartesian" ; Set machine name
M551 P"test: ; Set password
M552 S1 ; Enable network
M587 S"AF-House" P"Test" ; Configure access point. You can delete this line once connected
M586 P0 S1 ; Enable HTTP
M586 P1 S0 ; Disable FTP
M586 P2 S0 ; Disable Telnet -
Yeah, if the printer shows an AP and IP addr, and that AP (router) doesn't show the printer, time to reboot the router.
-
@Danal I just did, still no Duet =(
-
Drat.
Time for deeper intervention... perhaps upgrade firmware? Shouldn't have to; nonetheless sometimes it fixes things.

Should probably delete that from config.g
192.168.1.189
If it's not actually connected to the router, where is it getting that IP address? Is that IP from your subnet?

Ok really?
Well the Duet actually says it's connected to the Wifi... but I can't find it in the network.
The blue LED on the Wifi module lights blue as usual as well. -
Lol, after I deleted that line it works... that's very strange..

Well the comment does say to remove it once connected.

Well, good! Even if we don't entirely understand why, you are up and working, and that's the important part.

I had the same issue today... I have 2 of them machines so swapped the sd cards and it worked.. So got a new sd card and that fixed the issue.
-
This still happens to me all the time, and this time I can't seem to get it to connect at all.
When I send M552 the Duet says it is connected to the Wifi, but I can't connect to DWC from Chrome.Does anyone have any idea?!
I have updated the firmware.
