Feather M4 + AirLift feather wing connect to WIFI error #177

Closed smoczyna closed 1 year ago

smoczyna commented 1 year ago

I copied the code here to my feather M4 and try to connect to my local WIFI. Here is the effect:

%Run -c $EDITOR_CONTENT ESP32 SPI webclient test ESP32 found and in idle mode Firmware vers. bytearray(b'1.2.2\x00') MAC addr: ['0x5c', '0x12', '0x4a', '0x95', '0xab', '0x34'] jama RSSI: -37 jama RSSI: -68 Horizon Wi-Free RSSI: -73 jama RSSI: -74 eir_WiFi RSSI: -78 jama RSSI: -85 HUAWEI_B628_1C47 RSSI: -92 Connecting to AP... could not connect to AP, retrying: ('No such ssid', b'jama')

my local wifi is jama, not b'jama and I cannot figure out where is this " b' " being added, nothing helps.

b'something' is just the Python syntax for bytes or a bytearray. For ASCII text, it looks as you see with the SSID. It's not a bug or anything to be concerned about. A lot of stuff goes over the network as bytes. If you want to display bytes as a string, there are various ways, like: b'myssid'.decode().

If retrying doesn't help get beyond the "could not connect" message, then something else may be going on. I'd suggest hopping on the Adafruit Discord for support: https://adafru.it/discord

indeed, it looks like network issue rather than code. However your airlift feather seems to be quite fossy, it doesn't connect throwing quite stupid error like te one above when other esp32s connect just fine.
