Duet2 WiFi + MAC / M587: Bad or missing param / Terminal funk

There's a locked post from earlier for:
M587: Bad or missing parameter

Duet Getting Started statements are pretty straightforward but they don't say: USE COURIER (font)
Particularly for the quote marks in SSID/PASS assignments!

I had similar problems as past offenders, but the font and formatting got me going.
Easy to overlook!

Essentials:
ls /dev/tty.*

will generate:
/dev/tty.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port /dev/tty.usbmodem123
/dev/tty.Bluetooth-Modem /dev/tty.usbmodem456

you will enter one of those # as:

screen /dev/tty.usbmodem123 115200
or
screen /dev/tty.usbmodem456 115200

M115 // may do something for you!

M552 S0 // set wifi to idle

M587 S"your SSID" P"pass" // SSID / PASS

M552 S1 // enable wifi

Will generate some lines like this:
WiFi module is idle
WiFi module is connected to access point YOUR_SSID, IP address 192.168.43.224

Your WiFi on the DUET should light up and stay on

Take that IP and run it in a browser
BAM!

Follow the Duet3D steps to confirm the config.g has the M552 S1 in the first few lines.

You're G2G

remember the font

I see that https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Guide/1.)+Getting+Connected+to+your+Duet/7?lang=en#s8 has been updated to cover this.
