WIFI times out, module turns off randomly
-
Which firmware version are you running?
Also do you have a panel due attached? If you do just create a macro to restart the wifi module instead of doing it through USB.

@timcurtis67 If read my post you would see, latest webserver and firmware, and tried backdating with no change. No Paneldue in use at all.

@phaedrux, as stated in my post its NOT a json timeout.. the printer simply doesnt send any data while is connected so i get a timeout when even trying to access the web control page. When does connect it has 20-40kbs transfer at best. And in AP mode, still fails to connect occasionally as well as still slow speeds. All my network debugging has already been done. I am looking at hardware direct problem more likely now.

@webercreative there is more general troubleshooting information in that link than just JSON timeouts.

I have a issue occasionally where the wifi module just looses wifi connection and only reconnect on a printer restart (not tried USB things yet).
Another issue I have noticed is that when you connect to the webinterface when the printer is starting up there is a chance it will never load even though the duetwifi wifi module light is on.
However nothing you're describing.
Is the blue light on the wifi module off/blinking/on?

@WeberCreative I was having problems with connection dropping out, I reset the router and checked the signal strength with M122. I was at -73dBm which is inconsistent. Got a $15 dollar wifi extender (which is crap honestly but I am only using it for the printer) and its now at a -60dBm.

Solved.. the DUET supplied 4 Gig microsd card was failing.. All that work trying to diagnose what SHOULD only be related to the wifi module itself.. swap to a new microSD and havent dropped connection once.. and upload speeds went from ~30kbs to a steady 600+

@underdonesushi my signal strength was always 49 or better. @Nemesis it connected to the router fine.. just nothing could communicate with it 99% of the time. or slow as hell speeds when it did. Last resort was try a new microSD which shouldnt be related to wifi connectivity at all since all that is stored on the wifi module.. that fixed all the issues

@webercreative I guess if the SD card was having trouble writing the transfers would time out.
