Just got my first Wifi Link ( I have several of the bluetooth modules). I have hooked it up to a new spirit 2, and can connect to in and set the wifi properties.. but when I use the web interface and try to bring up the spirit settings, it looks like it is connecting, but then says connection error at the top and then tries again.. over and over.. So I put one of my bluetooth modules on instead and was able to connect to it just fine from the android app and see settings in the spirit 2... So, I then put the Wifi Link back on and was able to connect to it fine with the android app and see settings.. So my question is: What is going on with the web interface when I try to use it to get to the spirit settings.

pertinent data- Spirit2 is at 2.7.1.
Wifi Link is at 2.7.0

Trying to use using iphone 11 running ios 13.3. which would be my preferred method of connection instead of the android app.. While we are at it.. is the iphone app still a thing?
I was reading back through the posts from.. I believe 2015 when the WiFi Link came out ad saw that it was out there in the testing phase at the time.

So. it appears to be a spirit 2 issue. I took the wifi link and connected it to a couple of my original spirits. and it works fine- on the ones that had been upgraded to 2.7.1 everything works, and on one on an earlier version of the firmware, it reported that the firmware didn't match and should be upgraded.. I then tried again with the spirit 2 and got the connection error however the bluetooth module works fine on the spirit 2.

as to my earlier post where I mentioned that I was able to use the android app with the wifi link, that was incorrect, it looked like was working but as soon as I tried to navigate the settings it would disconnect. When powering the wifi link for testing I unplugged the esc wire from aux1 and plugged the wifi link into a y harness in aux1 and powered with a 2s life pack.. originally I had plugged the wifi link into the receiver but moved it directly to the spirit in case there was a ground difference that was messing with tx/rx..


Tomas.. do you have any ideas?

Hello,

this is what you should see after clicking the Connect button.
It should not matter which unit it is. Could you please attach your settings?
I guess problem is there.

so I have attached what I see.. As I mentioned in my last post it worked fine on 3 original spirits and a bluetooth module works fine on the spirit 2.

Are you able to check it right now with the other units?
To make sure that it can't be due to other reason such as web browser update or something else.

Sometimes it require to refresh the page completely (refresh cache).

Could you please attach your settings? Then maybe it will be possible to reproduce.

I went through and tried again last night. I put the wifi link on 2 other helis that have original spirits on them, and was able to connect and navigate the settings in them just fine. I then put the unit back on the new heli with the spirit 2 and get the screen I pasted below. For this test, I switched to chrome. In all cases, I have no issues getting an ip address from the wifi link, and can navigate to the website hosted at 192.168.4.1. only on the spirit 2, it won't connect.. the bluetooth module works fine on both helis.

Thank you, could you please share your settings?

I believe that the problem is just there. Possibly the same settings could cause same issue with other units.

So, I am assuming you are asking for the settings in the spirit2? if so, I have attached them.

Try turning off bluetooth and restart everything.

Please try to open the Wifi-Link with Chrome web browser on your computer if possible.

Then press CTRL+SHIFT+I. Special subwindow will be displayed where we can see what error is there.
Please click at the CONSOLE tab and click at the Spirit Settings at the Wifi-Link page.

Some errors should be displayed. If you can take a screenshot or photo of the error, it would be very helpful.

Unfortunately we are unable to replicate the issue in any way with Spirit 2 even with your settings.
