In Topic: Best practices: how to wait for a Wi-Fi network connection

12 July 2015 - 06:26 PM

Hi there,

 

New to Netduino (or any such device at all) and just received my Netduino 3 Wifi device. Managed to fix the first few bumps to get it work. Which include Firmware/SDK difference which prevented my from using GoBus. So now that I got that working I want some fun with Wifi.

I tried your examples above, and they didn't work. At first the ACT led was Always orange, which I thought was odd, considering you mention 'green' above. Then realised I had to put in some network settings using MFDeploy and now the ACT led is indeed green. But those examples you posted  still don't work. Considering I'm the newby here, it has to be me, right? :-)

So I guess I'm blaming my network/security settings:

I left DHCP enabled

Encryption: WPAPSK ( which I guess is the same as WPA2? )

Used the correct passphrase (double checked)

And entered the network name in SSID.

 

I have no clue what to fill in the field 'Authentication'. Couldn't find any similar names in my router settings. So I tried them all to no avail.

Left the network key to 2048 bit, but I haven't got a clue if that matters?

What is Rekey Internal?

 

This line keeps being 'True': IPAddress.GetDefaultLocalAddress() == IPAddress.Any

And so, it doesn't pass the while loop. And I figure it's also the reason why in the version with the events, the events never occur.

 

Sooooo ... any pointers would be very much apreciated :-)

 

Thanks!

 

Kind regards,

Koen
