Problems connecting to a Cisco access point (WPA2)
Posted: Mon Jul 06, 2015 10:31 pmI am having problems connecting to a Cisco access point. This is using standard WPA2, not WPA2 Enterprise, however the latter would be nice in the future.
I end up getting a code 4 from wifi.sta.status() after perhaps 20 seconds. The wifi controller sees the ESP, and its supported rates are what I'd expect. It is attempting to use 802.11g, rather than 802.11n, which is a little strange. It is not associating, which seems to be the underlying issue.
I have verified I can connect to another AP (an old link sys I have here). I have also disabled all but one AP just to see if that is the issue, but it still fails to connect to the Cisco APs.
Any suggestions?
I'm totally new to this chip (just got my Adafruit Huzzah delivered tonight) and am anxious to get started on a sensor project.
I could run one of these in SOFTAP mode, but I am a little concerned about battery life. STA seems more likely to drain the battery slower.
Thanks!
