Hi There DJ sures,
I'd gave myself a present the Wifi module TLG10UA03.
Yesterday it came with the postal
I just configured it gave it my wifi ssid and password and a static ip. Tested it and connected it to the EZ-B.
Powered up the EZ-B and wanted to connect the ARC.
But ehm.... ehm... ohh.
How can I connect
@orwnic82
I have been working getting my TLG10UA03 to work too. I am having some issues as well. Maybe we can help each other out here:
Have you been able to configure the device using the USB to TTL adapter?
I can setup the device using the USB to TTL adapter. I can get to the device via web browser and setup the com port. It should be 9600 baud for the EZB I believe with auto-work mode enabled.
I could be mistaken but I don't think the software above (UIRT-Wifi.exe) actually sets up the virtual com port on your machine...I think it is simply for setting up the TLG10UA03 when it is hard wired. I think that is why you are not seeing anything when you scan. I could be mistaken here but when I hit the Wireless connect button....the program hangs. (I looked through the manual, but don't see anything that addresses installing a virtual com port).
DJ mentions a TLG driver above....not sure what this is...UIRT-wifi.exe does not install anything that I know of.......@Pablio, you mention you installed a bunch of software including the TLG virtual port driver.....do you have a link to that?
What I did was I downloaded a different virtual com driver and was actually able to connect to the TLG10UA03 to establish a com port which windows and ARC both see.
The problem I am having to getting EZB to connect right now. I am trying to find a COM port scanner that is free that works with Windows 64...but have not yet found one.
was also able to connect to the virtual port using hyperterminal.
I would love to get this working...

I haven't been able to connect to the Wifi card to set up the settings, so no luck using the USB to TTL adaptor. And I didn't mean to sound as if it was setting up the virtual com port just the port for the adaptor. I've looked through the manual multiple times and uninstalled the drivers for the adaptor but there seems to be no communication with the card its self. They also mentioned about a disc that came with the hardware but I only received the USB to TTL, a 4 way ribbon cable and the Wifi module. I ran through my router changing the settings for later use for the wifi module using the standards that are mentioned in the manual but I am unable to even find the Wifi card after I connect the adaptor, device never found.
I can use the USB-TTL software and the drivers are installed for it so the com port is available however the wifi module is not found when searching. The connection is as shown above with the 3v jumpered for VDD from the USB-TTL. I am just not sure LED1 should be set when the wifi card is connected, @KKeast is this light for you?

Ok maybe i can help.....sounds like you installed the TTL driver ...this is not a virtual driver...it is the physical driver for the USB TTL device....the virtual driver comes later when you try to connect EZB to the wifi board via a TCP/Serial driver.
Make sure you have the right driver..you want the Prolific PL2303 driver
PL2303 Driver Installer
Sounds like you did that.
When you plug in the USB adapter does windows acknowledge something is plugged in? Go to Device Manager to confirm you have the prolific driver installed. You should see the com port number in Device Manger (take note of that). (from your post above..it sounds like this is where you are stuck).
Connect the wires from the USB TTL to the WIFI card...Make sure you have the wires between the USB TTL and the WIFI board correct. I am trying to remember...but I think you want RX to TX and TX to RX for the wired 'crossover' or null modem connection. As long as you dont mess up the Vcc and GND you are fine if you happen to tie TX to RX and vice versa...only one way works...
Run the UART-Wifi software....change to the com port you have in device manager.
you should see the wifi device come up then......once you get the device on your network you can use the web interface to work with it from there.
Hopefully this helps. Now if i could only get the EZB connection going...

Everything seems hooked up correct but the device is not being found when I search for it.
error:
Com invalid. Device is not supported.
The only thing I can think of is perhaps driving pin4(Nreset) low to see if that helps correct the issue
I am in chat right now if you want to discuss
Welp no such luck getting the TLG out of auto mode so I can configure it, I sent the AT controls tried the manual resets and just about everything I could review through the manual that could allow me to configure it to my router. Tried Hyperterminal however theres never a response from the TLG if you send AT+ should respond with ok+ but nothing any idea how to get the TLG into a different mode.
