WiFi Connection steps problem


Best Answer Chris Walker, 08 June 2015 - 06:04 PM

Hi thkaw,

Have you deployed an app to your Netduino? Netduino 3 and Netduino.IP support power management--and so they keep the Wi-Fi chip in hibernate state until an app is running.

[In the future we may expand this power management to keep the Wi-Fi chip in hibernate unless/until networking code is needed...providing more available current for projects which don't use networking.]

Hi, today i want to connect netduino 3 wifi to WIFI AP

 

but with unsuccessful.

 

 

I can't find any specific document telling about wifi connection step.

 

So I search on this forum.

 

Understand probably using MFDeploy to set.

 

 

I starting do following step to set netduino:

 

1. Connect my netduino 3 to PC, open MFDeploy.

 

2. Confirm netduino 3 is connect correctly and can send command.

 

3. Open Network configuration dialog.

 

4. Fill value like below image(Connect to my none encryption WIFI ap, here is my sony Z Ultra)

 

5. Press Update, then nothing happen, ACT LED always keep off, and WiFi ap also not see any client connect.

 

 

Please help me check if some step are wrong or miss.

 

Thanks!

Hello

Today I have received my Netduino 3 wifi.

After the initial updates (firmware/sdk/etc), I have tried to setup the network connection but without success.

I have the simple 'blink' app.

 

Currently my router/wifi use a WEP as security option with the Authentication Type = Open and the encryption of 128bit.

 

 

When the Netduino boot the ACT led stay 'orange' for two seconds (+/-) and after switch off.

 

When I reopen the Network config page I can see also a wrong network key because there are 5 additional 0 at the end of my key.

 

This is my first experience with the network configuration panel for the wifi connection.

 

Probably there is a big error on my setup :)

 

Thanks for any support.

Hi Gigios,

If you're using WEP, I believe that you want to use the passphrase (and not the key).

Does that help get you up and running?

I have tried also with the passphrase instead the key but without success.

If I change the security option to "WPA2-PSK" all works fine, the problem is that I have also an old device that manage only the WEP.

I try to investigate again, otherwise I try to use the WPA.

 

For the moment thanks for the support

Matt Isenhower has released MicroTweet on GitHub.  He also provides a sample application.

 

I've managed to post data to Sparkfun's Phant service, code snippets are in the forums.  I have also managed to get the neoMika web server code working on the board as well.

 

Hope this helps,

Mark
