I'm also still having issues with WiFi since I updated to 1.20. around 60% of the times I'm getting "WiFi reported error: Wrong password while trying to connect to ESSID. Wifi module is idle". Then I just type in the panelDue "M552 S1", and the wifi works again "Wifi module is connected to access point ESSID, IP address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX"
I tried with 1.19.3 and wifi works fine (no HW issue apparently), I tried flashing my AP (Linksys) with DD-WRT and duet connects 100% of the time… but DDWRT is really unstable in my AP (beta version... :() and caused lots of issues in my network.
Summarizing, something changed between 1.19.3 and 1.20 that makes my duet to fight against my AP and loose most of the times :(.
I've updated to RC3 (wifi problems still persists), and I've tried FTP (I tried it yesterday first time, and couldn't get it working at all), but it still doesn't work fine.
I tried with Filezilla (connects, but sometimes returns (500 Unknown login command), ftp terminal command (didn't work:421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection.), google chrome (Err_Connection_Reset) and Mac Finder (unable to connect at all). after trying terminal, chrome and finder, I tried again Filezilla, and it connects, but even though it list the folders and the files, I cannot download anything.
This is from FileZilla:
[[language]] Status: Connecting to XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:21... Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message... Status: Insecure server, it does not support FTP over TLS. Status: Server does not support non-ASCII characters. Status: Logged in Status: Retrieving directory listing...

Error: Could not read from socket: ECONNRESET - Connection reset by peer Error: Could not connect to server Status: Disconnected from server Status: Delaying connection for 5 seconds due to previously failed connection attempt...DWC works fine, and I didn't have any packet lost during the test. I can capture traffic with wireshark if you need to. I tried to download gcodes folder too (just in case sys causes problems or something) and I've got the same error.

Strange, does WiFi 1.21RC1 work for you?

(tried that one MANY times…)

GrodanB, please see David's release notes:
https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/blob/dev/WHATS_NEW.mdYou will see you need to either home Z first, or specify the lift with S2 to override the axis homing protection.
-
OK, amazing that 3-4 readings and still miss this… I assumed that was the probable root cause...
Fixing immediately! Thanks
So I practice the method that it is better to ask and be an idiot for five minutes then being it for the rest of you life
Edit: Re-reading it is so obvious... First time I just assumed that not allowing movement to an not homed axis was OK and did not register the homing issue...
The resume weirdness also disappeared when adding the S2 to the G1 Z-axis movement. Strange...New issue?: Why can I not upload files unless there is at least one XXX.Gcode in the gcode directory? Via the up-load button.
Did a emergency stop (reset) and the button was available again.

o T170 0. B16.7 /00I've tried to upload DuetWifiFirmware.bin several time from webui.

I've copied DuetWifiFirmware.bin to /sys and M997 S0something borken again.

The bltouch / multi-tap fix works great.

Leadscrew adjustments made: 0.004 -0.008 -0.000, points used 3, deviation before 0.005is there a link to guide or tute or dozuki page outlining the implementation of this newly supported feature? My BL Touch bed leveling has been giving me fits and I think its due to inconsistent probing results - this would be rather nice

If you're referring to the multi-tap, the relevent bits there are the S0.02 (max deviation between two sequential taps) and A5 (allow up to 5 attempts). I never see it tap more than twice, though.
The new probe type, P9, is to specify it's a BLTouch specifically, and so you no longer need to manually deploy the probe, it does it automatically.

o T170 0. B16.7 /00this was an serial issue I was not able to reproduce hopefully.
However I can't manage to upgrade to 1.21rc3, Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin been renamed to DuetWiFiFirmware.bin, uploaded through webui, copied to sdcard (+M997) M115 still reports 1.21rc2.

Thanks very much for this … appreciated - but there must be some documentation for this somewhere right? How did you learn of these settings / features?
I will try and implement. Im also desperateyl trying to find some data on the sensititivty setting for the BL Touch - docs just said to use a low setting - it was default at 500 - I modded that to 25 - wondering if that is impacting my results ... I cant find jack in docs on that issue

Thank you …
Now i get ... Error: M997: Firmware binary "DuetWiFiFirmware.bin" is not valid for this electronics ????

no blue light on wifi module … wth ... So doing some reading it stated on some docs that sometimes you need to make sure your wifiserver .bin and your firmware .bin are upload before executing the firmware update .... because Im getting M997 error - as stated above ... After upload of the new 1.21RC3 wifi server bin ... it asked if I wanted to upgrade or whatev's it calls it I hit YES.
It went thru some activity - showed me a green progress bar ... then now i get nothing no connection via wifi - no blue lights next to the wifi module on the board ... So now I have 1.20 firmware still and 1.21rc3 wifi server and no wifi connectivity - now what ?
release notes said it didnt matter if wifi bin or firmware bin done first ...
-
The blue light on the wifi module comes on only when uploading the wifi server firmware.
It looks like that is successful as you say the wifi server firmware version is 1.21rc3? Sounds like an issue with the main firmware upload. Try downloading the DuetCombinedFirmware.bin again (make sure you download the raw .bin file) then rename it to DuetWifiFirmware.bin then upgrade. You will need to comply it onto the SD card by putting it into your PC.

TY … yes I agree. I did make sure and actually downloaded the main fw file again and renamed it as per instructions - before moving over the wifi server .bin file via the gui. But I will do as indicated - i have to go get a micro sd card adapter/reader for this pc - never use them in real life ... but now do.
Will report back ... Im following
please advise if there is a better guide to follow for my situation than the one linked to above.
TY again …

That guide is the right one for this situation

Any ideas why I got the M997 error at the onset ? Did i need to be running a more recent firmware version than 1.20 ?

That normally means you downloaded the html page describing the firmware file, instead of the firmware file.
