System.NullReferenceException occurred in Netduino.IP.LinkLayers.CC3100

.NETMF 4.4 Netduino SDK 4.3.2.2

In order to configure the Wi-Fi (as HSven1611 mentioned), one has to use th eMFDeploy tool. One can find this tool in the .NET Micro framework SDK (something I didn't know about - that is where to find it). for the SDK version 4.3 it can be found here

C?:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft .NET Micro Framework\Tools\

Once I found it, I was able to configure the Wi-Fi with the DNS server's IP address as well as the WPA  from the Target | Configuration | Network menu option. The dialog presented has the fields you'll need to fill in. Make sure your device is connected to your PC.

I have an empty (no code) NetDuinoApplication project (VS 2015).

 

Running it, I get this exception

an unhandled exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in Netduino.IP.Linklayers.CC3100

 

I don't have the Wi-Fi configured (Not able to figure out how to get that to work). The Wi-Fi light it yellow/orange).

 

What could be wrong? Also, how can I configure the Wi-Fi on the board?

Configuring the WiFi is done by using the MFDeploy tool. You'll have to connect to your Netduino first and then you are able to change it's network settings.

 

I don't have that stuff installed here so I cannot upload a screenshot. Sorry for that.

 

Regards
