My duet wifi does not connect to the wifi.
-
Also not sure if it is normal, but before the blue led was on. Now on usb only it is not.
-
@Phaedrux Also I checked the link for the remembered list/networks, as I still have the M587 in the config.g
I only access the printer from the web interface. I do not understand how it will work if the command to enable the wifi is not in the config.g
How can I send a macro to it if it does not connect first? -

you enable the network with
m552 s1m587 is for storing the network details, this only needs to be done once.@GPetropoulos said in My duet wifi does not connect to the wifi.:

blue light is to indicate Vin, so it will not light when using only usb

okCan you send M552 S0 and then M552 S1?

I fear that having that in the config has caused the module flash to burn out from constantly re-writing the SSID and password at every power up.

@Phaedrux M552 S0
ok
M552 S1
Turn off the current WiFi mode before selecting a new one
ok
M552
WiFi module is being started -
Can you try setting up the wifi module in access point mode to see if the module is working at all?

@Phaedrux Does this mean it is bricked?
Unfortunately I had not seen that you should not use the M587 in the config.g and should be something added at a later time than last year we were talking.Is there any chance my firmware is old and this does not work due to that?
I have not updated the firmware for sometime.I had ordered directly from duet3d.com on 09/12/18

Try without the quotes around the ip address. The example in the wiki may need to be updated.

@Phaedrux Yes it sent a different answer now.

If the access point mode doesn't work after removing the quotes from the ip address you can try reflashing the wifi server firmware by sending
M997 S1 -

This is what I get
M997 S1
Trying to connect at 230400 baud: failed
Trying to connect at 115200 baud: failed
Trying to connect at 74880 baud: failed
Trying to connect at 9600 baud: failed
Error: Installation failed due to comm write error
ok -
Will have to see what @dc42 thinks.
-
If the module has failed, it is replaceable with the right skills and tools.
-
@Phaedrux Well I don't have the skills or the tools for such an operation
-
If you have a maker space or hacker space nearby they might be able to help. Search the forum for "community repair" to see if any of the listed forum users are nearby and able to assist with repair. Alternatively you could try converting to using a Raspberry Pi like the Duet 3 (but the firmware for that is still beta, and it will require some custom wiring), there are a few threads here on using a Pi and DSF with Duet2Wifi as well if you search
-
@bearer Thank you for your feedback. Thus I do not have a makerspace near me. I am in a smaller town where 3D Printing is not so adopted.
I would not like to go for experiments. I like my duet and I wish to keep using that. -
@dc42 What do you think? Is it bricked?
What are my options here? -
That the Duet is unable to enter the bootloader of the wifi module does mean repairs are necessary unfortunately.
If repairs by local enthusiasts or commercial actors isn't an option (a phone repair shop that does actual repairs should be able to do it if you supply the module) then https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/13875/community-repairs might be able to help you, but postage is a thing ofcourse.
Or you could keep using it as is, you can transfer sliced files to your SD card via USB as well as putting the card in your computer; or you can also print directly from USB but its better to transfer the file.
If you don't have a PanelDue you could buy a "DT-06" wifi module, install esplink on it, install a virtual com port on the computer and use the printer wirelessly as if it was actually connected by USB.
