Updating firmware from 1.15 to 1.19
-
Wow David you are really fast with the responses. Thank you. For SetNetwork what program do you create the macro in?
Any text editor should do. Note pad. Text pad.

Thanks Phaedrux,
It turns out the macro isn't needed when you upgrade directly to firmware 1.21.
when I sent M552 S1 I received the error below. I believe my router is at 2.4mh any ideas why i'm not able to connect?

It was a problem with the router. I unplugged it then plugged it back in. I'm connected !
Thank you guys for the help. Being able to update the firmware directly to 1.21 really helped. In the instructions it makes it sound like you need to update to 1.19 first then upgrade to a more recent version. The hardest part was finding where the files were. It took a lot of digging to find them https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/releases
My main confusion was I couldn't find which files to download. After that the instructions were clear and easy to follow. -
Hi,
I am confused...
I am not a PC expert or an expert in g code. I did build my own 3D printer using a Duet wifi.
I have just installed a new router and want the printer to be accessible via the web page as before with my old router.
I have been reading up on the method for connecting to a new router then noticed that if my FW was 1.18 I needed to update.
I arrived at this page but am now stumped by the comments put them in /sys on the SD card and empty /www folder. I am not allowed to create any folders with / in the folder name.
This might be a simple issue for you guys but I am now stuck.
Can I just have a process to use to get my printer connected to my new router using existing FW or can someone give me a blow by blow idiots guide to updating the FW...
Thanks.
Don

@hobdayd the / in the name of folders people are referring too just means that those folders are in the root of the SDcard. (As opposed to subdirectories)
-
So...
My SD card is (F)
I create 2 folders sys & www?
-
Those folders are probably already on the existing SD card in the Duet (easiest to update this in your PC.

Ok, sorry for asking basic questions...I have got this far but still having issues...
Printer is now online.

Good to see you have the new firmware loaded
If you have a look here:
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Guide/1.)+Getting+Connected+to+your+Duet/7#s10
You will see that you need to send the exact information for your SSID and password.
From this

-
Ok thanks. I will try it tomorrow and report back.
-
Many thanks. The issue was I was using Pronterface which was as you said sending capital letters. Changed to YAT and worked fine.
I could not have done this without your help.
Many Thanks once again.
