Cannot connect with AP

Hi everybody,

I have troubles to connect the SPWF01 with an AP using WPA2 privacy mode.

When I try to connect, after Wind 25: association successful, I receive Wind 40: deauthentication:1

+WIND:19:WiFi Join:00:04:ED:61:FB:18

+WIND:25:WiFi Association with 'Alison' successful

+WIND:40:WiFi Deauthentication:1

+WIND:74:Rejected found Network

I have another AP and I can link with it using the same security mode and the same password, hence my code should be right.

+WIND:19:WiFi Join:14:CC:20:9C:D5:4D

+WIND:25:WiFi Association with 'Alison_EXT' successful

+WIND:51:WPA Handshake Complete

+WIND:24:WiFi Up:192.168.1.110

I did a scan and the APs are in WPA2 for sure:

1: BSS 00:04:ED:61:FB:18 CHAN: 06 RSSI: -59 SSID: 'Alison' CAPS: 0411 WPA2

2: BSS 14:CC:20:9C:D5:4D CHAN: 06 RSSI: -79 SSID: 'Alison_EXT' CAPS: 0431 WPA WPA2 WPS

I think it could be a security issue because I can connect to the bad AP in Open mode.

I searched the web for deauthentication:1. It is ''Unspecified failure'', so I can't have any clue from it.

The module has the last FW version: 150410-c2e37a3-SPWF01S.

Could you give me any hint?

Thank you,

Paolo

    I'm sorry, I don't do it...

    my AP works well and I don't want to break its equilibrium.

    It hasn't given me a problem in years of work.

    Ciao Salvatore, Gerardo,

    I upgraded the AP FW and the problem is desapeared!

    I have another oddity for you. Trying to connect to the AP in all the privacy modes I noticed that using WEP the SPWF01 gives me Wifi Up even though the password was wrong. Module however was not reacheble. This still happens after the AP FW upgrade.

    Hi Gerardo,

    I'm not saying that WEP doesn't work.

    I was able to

    use it

    .

    I'm saying that the module says connected even if it isn't.

    Hi Paolo,

    could you please confirm that another device (PC, smartphone) works fine with the AP in WEP mode?

    I found some threads on public forums where users claim issues after connecting a PC to Michelangelo Wave (in WEP mode).

    Could you please also share with us the details of the WEP config used (WEP authentication, WEP encryption, Key 1 configured)?

    Thanks

    Ciao

    Ciao Salvatore,

    I'm sorry for the late reply.

    A PC Win8.1 and a smartphone Android work fine with Michelangelo Wave.

    I tried WEP 64 bits, password ''pippo'', and WEP 128 bits, password ''0123456789012''.

    In both cases also the SPWF01SA connects with the AP and I can ping it from the PC.

    The strangeness is when I try to connect the SPWF01SA using a wrong password:

    I cannot reach it anymore (right) but it says Wifi Up (wrong).

    Paolo
