Duet does not auto-connect to WiFi

Hi all,

I'm sure this is a very basic newbie issue but it's driving me crazy!

I'm on my Mac, connecting by USB to the Duet and using SerialTools to add my WiFi network and connect and this works fine. The WiFi LED on the Duet glows purple and I can connect to it using DWC in my browser. But when I disconnect the USB and power up the Workbee the WiFi LED glows red but the module does not auto-connect so I can no longer access the Duet. Back on a USB connection I can see that the Duet still has the correct settings stored to join the network.

Looking at the config.g file from DWC I can see that the M552 S1 command seems to be active.

Why won't it join automatically?

Hi David,

Is there anything unusual with your home Wifi, for example, are you using a mesh network? Does your network have a 5ghz channel?

Problem solved. It was a missing config.g file

I now have a stable wifi connection.

Thanks
