ILabs Challenger 2040 WiFi

[ITstreet1]

While trying to compile a simple Scan example from the lib, I get this error: C:\Users\:usr:\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\rp2040\hardware\rp2040\2.3.2\libraries\lwIP_Ethernet\src/LwipIntfDev.h:59:29: error: 'SS' was not declared in this scope 59 | LwipIntfDev(int8_t cs = SS, SPIClass& spi = SPI, int8_t intr = -1) : | ^~ exit status 1

This trows for any WiFi example from the lib

Looking at your path directory, it looks like you are using an old release of 2.3.2. If so, try the latest and see if that makes any difference.

Hey Dejan,

You need to use the wifiespat library with our boards (https://github.com/JAndrassy/WiFiEspAT)

lwIP_Ethernet should work with a W5500 on any RP2040, but I am not sure if the library is ready

Hi Pontus,

Yes, I have read Getting Started on your pages. Still, examples from the package for this board do not work. And I am addressing the examples from the package. If examples are not compatible then they should be fixed or removed. Some other examples, such as Fade, forks fine. :)

Are there any other examples for Arduino IDE? CircuitPython works just fine.

@JAndrassy

I just try to verify. Can someone try to verify any sketch from board examples about WiFi?

[PontusO]

Dejan, you should be able to run any example from the wifiespat library package, we've tested all examples without any issues.

Having the wifi library (for the rpi w) integrate into the board support package automatically makes it available for all rp2040 boards. That is just an Arduino thing.

the WiFi library bundled with the boards package is only for Raspberry's Pico W board with a CYW43439 WiFi module on board.

your ILabs Challenger 2040 WiFi board has an esp32 for WiFi

[ITstreet1]

@JAndrassy This one has ESP8285 but I get the point @PontusO

This clears a lot. Thank you, guys!

[JAndrassy]

off topic: @PontusO I think for the ESP8285 AT 1.7.5 would be a better option than AT 2. AT 2 for esp82xx stopped at 2.2.0 and has many problems (solved for esp32 in 2.4.0). I assume AT 2 from factory because boards.txt has

challenger_2040_wifi.build.extra_flags=-DWIFIESPAT2

Just in case others stumble upon this:

#include <ChallengerWiFi.h>
#include <WiFiEspAT.h>
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  while (!Serial2);
  Serial2.begin(115200);
  WiFi.init(Serial2);
  WiFi.begin("ssid", "pass");
  Serial.println("Waiting for connection to WiFi");
  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
    delay(1000);
    Serial.print('.');
  }
  Serial.println();
  Serial.println("Connected to WiFi network.");
}

void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:

}

This is a basic sketch for a WiFi connection. Works like a charm.

Looks like this was cleared up, thanks guys. If the Challenger WiFi board needs a different pins_arduino.h please do submit a PR.
