M5Stack Fire won’t connect to IPhone hotspot
-
I can’t get my M5 to connect to my iPhone personal hotspot on my XSMax. I’m not connected to a WiFi connection, my hotspot name is Kelly, no spaces or anything, I put the M5 in the select Wi-Fi Ap mode and go to the IP address shown on the screen and the connection page comes up. My hotspot isn’t listed which I think is probably my first clue it’s not going to work and then I click the other box and type in Kelly and the password, but it will not connect. I plan to try it with anothe lr hotspot if I get a chance. I thought I had wrote my program where if it didn’t find a WiFi connection, it would not matter, but I guess not.

your other device connect the hotspot is normal?
maybe you could try to remove the battery bottom. then try again.

@m5stack That did the trick! Thank you! I was able to get it connected without the battery. So can I attach the battery now?

Hi, I have been looking all over and not able to solve it yet, I have a Fire, and will not connect to wifi, I have tried no spaces, no battery, etc, no luck.
I have tried different routers and still not working.
only once I had been able to connect to wifi, very long ago, I can access it as AP, but no way to get it to connect to a wifi network.any help?
thanks -
Check the WiFi frequency band. ESP32 is only compatible to 2.4GHz WiFi networks. Some iPhone use 5GHz by default but there is a compatibility mode for switching down to 2.4GHz.
