Hi,

Can you provide some terminal logs? You're using WICED 6.6.1 only right? Also, let me know the security of the hotspot network you're connecting to.

Thanks

Hi,

Actually I modified some code  so terminal logs will not help much I think.

But, security type I'm using correctly. Using wwd_wifi_scan api  for getting security type. For iPhone  AP I'm getting it as WICED_SECURITY_WPA3_WPA2_PSK.

FYI: Using WICED-Studio-6.6 code 

Thanks

Hi,

Can you please let me know which part of WICED code you've modified? Have you made changes to the wwd driver? Also, I need the version of firmware that you're using. If it's the default one that's present in WICED, I can check on my end itself.

Thanks

Hi,

Are you testing with fmac driver? If so, let me know the version. WICED doesn't have support for imxRT1051.

Thanks

Hi,

Regarding driver I don't know much. But now I'm able to connect with iPhone hotspot.

I think due SSID it was not connecting because in SSID previously I used  's that may be reason I don't know. Now I kept SSID as simple name.

I'll try with  other 2-3 devices & let you know if any problem is there or not.

Thanks

Hi,

Can you be more precise? By keeping the 43455 kit, iPhone constant for testing, how frequently does kit fail to connect to iPhone? And is this frequency of failure varying with different iPhones? 

I will need logs to be even able to get to identify some reason for this behaviour.

Thanks

Hi,

When you're connecting to 5 GHz AP,  you've to assign "WICED_802_11_BAND_5GHZ" value to macro "CLIENT_AP_BAND" defined in "wifi_config_dct.h" file of your application. Are you doing this? Also, are you setting proper value to the macro "CLIENT_AP_CHANNEL" defined in the previously mentioned file.

Thanks

Hello,

Did my above suggestion help? If not, let me know what happens when you connect to 5GHz hotspot. Do you get some error? you can uncomment the wwd macros (WPRINT_ENABLE_WWD_ERROR) in "wiced_defaults.h" file to get more logs.

Thanks
