Could not Connect to WizFi360-PA softAP (Incorrect Password)

Hi, I have a WizFi360-PA configured with some AT commands including setting it as softAP, setting SSID and password. The response for all the configuration commands was OK.

After the configuration commands, the SSID showed up correctly with strong Wi-Fi signal. However when I tried to connect to this SSID, it always says the password is incorrect. I am pretty sure I typed in the correct password and I also tried on different computers. It’s the same issue.

I also tried on another WizFi360-PA and it’s the same issue. So it doesn’t look like it’s related to that particular unit.

With the same configuration command set, I was able to get WizFi360-CON to work. Is there anything different in terms of the firmware between -PA and -CON?

The configuration command set is shown in below for your reference. Thanks!

Hello, joshzhuozhichen

I’m sorry for the late reply.

It isn’t different in terms of the firmware between PA and CON.

I tested what you mentioned but it worked fine. Please refer to the command below. (Please note the quotation marks.)

AT+CWMODE_DEF=2

OK
AT+CWSAP_DEF=“wizfi360”,“12345678abc”,1,3,4,0

OK
AT+CIPAP_DEF=“192.168.1.20”,“192.168.1.1”,“255.255.255.0”

OK
AT+CWDHCPS_DEF=1,120,“192.168.1.100”,“192.168.1.200”

OK
AT+CIPMUX=1

OK
AT+CIPSERVER=1,5000

OK
AT+CIPSTO=7200

OK


I connected laptop → Wizfi360(Soft AP)

AT+CWLIF
192.168.1.100,68:ec:c5:28:c6:7a

OK

Hello, I have got the same problem. It works once and if I try to change it from that then it doesn’t work and says the password is invalid when I try to connect to the WizFi wifi.

I downgraded the firmware from 1.1.1.7 to 1.0.7.5 and after that it started working properly. Any idea why?
