Also posted on stackoverflow.

When I try to enable wifi on this board, the

Code: Select all

.active(True)

method hangs forever.

Code: Select all

.venv/bin/python -m serial.tools.miniterm /dev/tty.usbmodem1234561 115200
--- Miniterm on /dev/tty.usbmodem1234561  115200,8,N,1 ---
--- Quit: Ctrl+] | Menu: Ctrl+T | Help: Ctrl+T followed by Ctrl+H ---

>>> 
>>> import network
>>> wlan = network.WLAN(network.STA_IF)
>>> wlan.active()
False
>>> wlan.active(True)                     <--------- this method call hangs forever

Is anyone able to offer some advice on how to get wifi working for this board?

Thanks in advance.
