Re: Migration to GitHub Discussions
Certainly github discussions works just fine on an android tablet with posts occupying the whole screen width with m)ore screen space for text than this forum. Though I miss the categorisation by processor type.

Re: The ntptime module documenation is confusing?
Have you actually tried using ntptime without worrying about UTC? With a suitable host set a simple ntptime.settime() delivers a correct UTC time. This is using the latest overnight build of 1.19 for the Pico W. And there is no timezone, or any other, keyword argument. The documentation is clearly w...

Re: How to distinguish Pico from Pico W?
I have a couple of the new chips, available from day one here in the UK. I can confirm the INFO_UF2.TXT file is identical to the original board. Once micropython is installed it's easy enough to identify the new board. If nothing else it has a network module.

Re: [Arduino Portenta H7] OSError: [Errno 1] EPERM when running network code
Without an IP address you won't get anywhere. I'm not sure I have any more to add as it looks like the problem is with your specific hardware. The code I listed works on both ESP8266 and a range of ESP32 mcu. Hopefully someone with some experience of your board can help. You might also get a more fo...

Re: Racing RTC - days pass in a minute
A while back I tested a range of microcontroller RTCs and the ESP8266 was easily the worst. If you must use an ESP8266 and require decent timekeeping either an external clock chip or frequent resetting using ntptime is essential. It's not that Expressif can't do decent RTCs, timekeeping on the ESP32...

Re: [Arduino Portenta H7] OSError: [Errno 1] EPERM when running network code
An empty HOST string should work. Are you still getting an error or does it just hang? Your code looks OK as far as making a connection goes. I'm not so sure about the HTML you are generating but if you try connecting to your devices IP address via a browser you should at least see a connection if y...

Re: [Arduino Portenta H7] OSError: [Errno 1] EPERM when running network code
Not sure why you are using AP_IF. Any device connected to an IP network must have an IP address which you can see using ifconfig . I have a web server running on my ESP32s using code virtually identical to yours for the basic socket stuff. I just do a normal STA_IF connection and it works just fine....

Re: [Arduino Portenta H7] OSError: [Errno 1] EPERM when running network code
I can see a couple of problems with the code. You only import WLAN from network so 'network.STA_IF' is invalid. However, the real issue is that that you need 'wlan.active(True) after the assignment and before the connection. I'm using an ESP32 but the network interface is pretty consistent across bu...

Re: First try at a websocket server - Pi Pico W5100S, HTML and javascript
Alternatively you could use a board / processor that already has ethernet access available. The teensy 4.1 has an optional kit to add an ethernet port and support is available in the Micropython port and it's very straightforward to use. I've set up an FTP server using a standard implementation and ...

Re: WiFi re-connect problem
If you want the program to continue to run you need to trap the 'Wifi Internal Error' with a try: except: block. you can then ignore the error and try connecting again. Certainly not best practice but I fairly consistently get the error, sometimes multiple times, and the code below gets it connected...
