Fujinet Stopped Accepting Wi-fi Password


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

 

Looking for some troubleshooting advice.  I haven't used my Fujinet (Lotharek's Fujinet pro) in a while.  I've never had any issues with it.  Decided to fire it up tonight (on my original A800), but for whatever reason, it will no longer connect to my Wi-fi network.  I tried resetting the system.  It seems to "see" the wifi network ok, but it won't connect.  I tried resetting the system.  When I type in my wifi password (100% certain its the correct password), it appears like it is attempting to connect (the "clicking" sound one would expect), but it won't connect.    It eventually goes back to the network selection screen.  I've tried this several times, but it still won't connect.  It's the only network device that won't connect to the network.

 

Any recommendations regarding troubleshooting steps I can/should try?

 

Thanks,

 

Jim

Hi. Sorry you're having issues:

 

Two things:

 

(1) ensure you have the latest firmware, by using the FujiNet Flasher http://fujinet.online/download

(2) If you can, while also in the flasher, fire up the serial monitor and reboot the system; paste the output here in this thread.

I went ahead an flashed the device, but its still not connecting to the network.  I'm beginning to think this might be a hardware issue?

The error 107 indicates that there was an error reading the SD card, is one inserted?

 

Also, I don't see it actually attempting to connect to a network.

I didn't insert a flash card prior to flashing.  Is that required?

 

I'm a bit confused.  When I flash the system, wouldn't the first attempt to connect to the network occur after flashing (i.e., when I identify the network to connect to after I attach the unit to the A800)?

 

After flashing, I hooked the unit up to my A800.  It boots Fujinet as expected and it identifies the available networks.  I select the appropriate network, and it prompts me for the password.  I type in a password, and then it simply errors out and returns to the network selection screen. 

 

I'm sure my "newbie" status is shining through here, so thanks for your patience.  :)

No, sd card is not required.

Correct, this is what will happen. Are you able to capture the serial debug output when trying to connect to wifi? Fujinet will show an error there if it cannot connect.

Here is the serial debug output (below).  This has me even more confused, as it suggests the system is connected to the wifi network with an IP address of 192.168.0.235.  But when I attempt to connect on the  A800, it displays an error message and returns to the wifi network selection screen.

So here's the latest:

 

When I attach the Fujinet to my PC via USB and reset it, it appears to login to the wifi network correctly and obtains an IP address.   The serial debug log seems to confirm this.  And I can see my device connected to the router when I review the active clients.  

 

When I remove the Fujinet from my PC and attach it to the A800, it boots as expected, but won't connect to the network.  It "sees" the network.  When I enter the password, it errors out every time. 

 

Very frustrating.  If anyone has any recommendations, I'm all ears.

 

Thanks,

 

Jim

Well, I seemed to have narrowed this down to a network issue versus a problem with the Fujinet (although for some reason, the Fujinet seems to be the only device impacted).

 

I have a mesh network set up in my home.  It broadcasts on both 2.4G and 5G.  When the network extender that the Fujinet is attached to is broadcasting on both networks, the Fujinet has trouble connecting.  If I turn off either 2.4G or 5G on the extender (i.e., just broadcast on one band), it will connect.  The oddest thing is - it only seems to struggle w/ connect to this one extender.  When attempting to connect to other extenders in the house (even when they're broadcasting on both 5G and 2.4G), it seems to work ok.

 

This is a new one for me.  If anyone has any thoughts or advice, I'd love to hear from them.  Not really anxious to disable dual band broadcasting simply to accommodate the Fujinet.

It’s been a long time since I had to connect my Fujinet to my mesh network. It’s possible I used the capability in my Eero mesh network to temporarily pause the 5Ghz band, let the Fujinet connect, and allow the 5Ghz band to start up again. On the Eero, you can pause the 5Ghz band for 5-10 minutes (don’t remember the exact time right now). 
 

Once the Fujinet was connected, I know you can use the dial bands without a problem.

Just closing the loop on this thread.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) the issue I encountered seems to be specific to my set up, so its doubtful many others will benefit from this...

 

I ultimately determined that the dual band issue was caused by the fact that there was a lot of interference on the 2.4G band channel my router was using.  After switching the 2.4G band channel on my router, I am now able to connect without any issues (at least for the time being).

 

Anyhow, thanks to Darwinmac and tschak909 for the feedback!  I really appreciate it.
