WI-FI Not finding home network

oakguy

I upgraded my Activity Bot to the newWX board with the DIP WI-FI module. Ran the initial tests with the esp8266 in AP mode and it worked fine. Next step is to join my home network and get an IP address from my Netgear router. However, it never finds an internal network. Roughly 12 devices are currently connected to the Netgear. Any ideas on way I can seem to get it to discover in STA + AP mode? I have tried power off and reset 4 times quickly?

thanks

Sounds good, I'm glad you got it to work.

Here is a link to an updated SimpleIDE folder:
https://github.com/parallaxinc/Simple-Libraries/archive/Community.zip

After replacing the existing Learn folder in ...Documents/SimpleIDE with this one, you can use ...Documents\SimpleIDE\Learn\Examples\Network\WiFi\Join a Network.side to skip the web interface steps. Also, check the Switch to STA + AP mode.side and Leave a Network.side projects.

See Andy you do get on this forum from time to time.....
