    I’m having an issue with my A3 number 82000074 not connecting (and/or not staying connected) to my wifi. It appears that it will sometimes connect but not long enough form me to go to the page and I’m not seeing anything on the server. I have tried multiple reboots without any luck. Any suggestions?

    I read where someone was able to have theirs reconnect by updating the firmware. I have an USBast Atmel AVR USB programmer where I can upgrade the firmware if there is one available for my unit… I believe I have a fairly old A3 version.

    Thanks,

    Thanks Wolferl.

    I was able to get it back online, although it’s not an ideal setup. I had to add an old wireless access point to my network. I had disconnected the A3 while redoing some things in my shop and after reconnecting it would not connect (or stay connected long enough to test). The only thing I had changed was to update my network to use Unifi instead of the older Asus hardware. I installed an old mobile access point and voila it reconnected. Will the hardware support more modern wifi networks if I updated the firmware?

    How do I go about getting updated firmware?

    Thanks,
    Adam

    Hi Adam,

    Like Wolferl very well said, you won’t be able to use WPA3 with relatively limited embedded hardware, but WPA/WPA2 will work just fine.

    What is your current wifi config?

    Radu,

    I currently have it set with WPA2 and BG operation and its working well. I believe my router had some newer technologies that weren’t compatible with some devices so I have a second access point just for these.

    Would a firmware update be beneficial or is it recommended to stay with the version I’m currently running? type:8 hw:103 sw:124 SI29BG

    thanks!

    Hi Adam, thanks for the clarifications. You can use your current firmware.
