can anyone help me get ez hooked up to wifi? i got Uart-Wif but can not get it to work. I can't put a computer on robot to much weight.
is there another wifi that will work with ez? mad
if you are done programming the wifi module and have a sucessful supply to the wifi unit and the ez-b the ip address will be useful when you use a virtual serial driver for the wifi which will allow for you to connect via ARC through the com port to the wifi. However this is the furthest I could explain it to you. I do not have the virtual serial software to help you here.
thanks i think Dj needs to make a video on this that will solve all the problems
He has said about it, when he finds time I am sure he will get to it. Have you got the wifi to work?
working on it now,got virtual com port installed but no luck.Cant grt it out of auto tried using arduino
I am sure following the instructions should do it. Simply connect the wifi to the ttl usb then open arduino next set the serial port to the specified com that the ttl is on. open the serial monitor type in +++ and hit send. You should receive +ok as a response, this should remove it from auto mode. From there you can use the wifi software to programm the wifi card.
i tried and when i hit send no ok,i think my ttl usb is bad going to order another one. this is holding me back,need to get wifi working because it is going to use home wifi and 4g/3g for outside roaming
Here's whar mine looks like with the cable connected properly.

Note that mine didn't come with a jumper to select the voltage on the serial board. I added one on the 3.3V side, wired it up as in the picture and uart-wifi immediately recognized it. So that's a start!
Ok, I can join it to the network, ping it, and access the internal web setup pages. It does not however, automatically join the wifi network. Is this what auto-work mode is for? Also looking for info on setting up the virtual com port. Physical connection to the EZ-B will be trivial, so this is the last piece of the puzzle, and then I'll document it all and post it.
