      @Tron_Lives Try reflashing the wifi module firmware by sending M997 S1.

        @Phaedrux Done, immediately after it said it failed to connect to my wifi. I'm fairly certain the network name and password are correct. The only thing that has changed is Cox made me upgrade my router to their panoramic one and it doesn't have a separate 2.4/5 GHz internet. It says it takes both, but I'm suspicious.

          That could be very likely. There have been other reports of ISP issued wifi routers not playing nice, usually with combined SSIDs. If possible see if you can force it to split out a separate 2.4ghz network. Or get a cheap 2.4ghz router and set it up as an AP for the Duet.

            @Phaedrux AP?

            I'll look more into it and get back to you. Thanks for your help.

              Sorry, AP = Access Point. What you call a wifi router that is just providing a wireless network access point but no actual routing.

                @Phaedrux I got in touch with Cox and apparently, there's a hidden setting for enabling the 2.4 GHz wifi. I have that turned on and the password is right, but I still get an error saying "Failed while trying to connect" Is there anything else I can try?

                  @Tron_Lives Is there another device you can try to connect to your Cox 2.4 access point as a test?

                  Like a smartphone, thermostat, Roku or something?

                    @alankilian I have recently reconnected a few smart devices like speakers and light bulbs. I also just made sure I can connect using my phone.

                      OK, what does M587 say now?
                      It should show your 2.4 GHz WiFi access point SSID (name)

                      Going back to what @Phaedrux said in an earlier message, let's try again.

                      Try clearing out all the saved passwords with M588 S"*" and then use M587 S"networkname" P"password" to add your SSID

                        @alankilian I must have done something because now YAT has issues recognizing my printer. When it does end up recognizing it, it remembers the correct wifi SSID. After I do what you have suggested above I get the same error.

                        Could it be a firmware issue? I haven't printed anything in awhile because of school (7 months)

                          When and where did you purchase the Duet?

                              Unfortunately, that makes it very likely it's a clone board, not produced by Duet3D; we don't sell through Amazon. Can you post a picture of both sides of the board?

                                @droftarts Understood. I did however wipe my SD card and start from scratch and read that when using YAT you don't need to do anything special when typing the network SSID and password as opposed to pronterface where I had to put a apostrophe after each letter. So it works now. Thank you all for your help and I apologize if I was an idiot and wasted your time.
