Hi MicroPython community,

First, thanks for making something awesome as MicroPython happen! It really makes my software engineer heart really warm and cozy!

I use my SF2W since some weeks to log data to a MQTT server. This works nice and rather reliably. However, when my WiFi disappears my Python script gets stuck and remains so after connecting. I tried to make it more reliable, but was not really able to.

I tried with something like this in my main loop:

Code: Select all

    if not wl.isconnected():
        errled.on()
        wl.disconnect()
        wl.connect(...)
        while not wl.isconnected():
            time.sleep_ms(200)

However, from what I can see wl.isconnected() never gets True in those situation.

Enabling traceing seems to indicate that the lower layer connects, but it seems not to be reflected on the Python API:

Code: Select all

[  884015] ASYNC(0000,32,0,0,0)
[  884018] ASYNC(0000,ASSOC_REQ_IE,0,0,0)
[  884018] ASYNC(0000,AUTH,0,0,0)
[  884040] ASYNC(0000,ASSOC_RESP_IE,0,0,0)
[  884040] ASYNC(0000,9,0,0,0)
[  884040] ASYNC(0001,LINK,0,0,0)
[  884049] ASYNC(0000,PSK_SUP,6,0,0)
[  884114] ASYNC(0000,JOIN,0,0,0)
[  884115] ASYNC(0000,125,0,0,0)

>>> wl.status()
-2
>>> wl.isconnected()
False

I also found this which claims that PYBD should automatically reconnect:

This seems not true/have issues?

Banner says I am using:
MicroPython v1.10-445-ga9b1d3ca3 on 2019-05-29; PYBD_SF2W with STM32F722IEK

Which I think is the latest version? (at least banner did not change after reflashing some minutes ago. But *please* add version information to the PYBD builds in your downloads section...)

Best regards,
Stefan

Hi,

Thanks for the report -- it does look like there are still some issues to work out here. https://github.com/micropython/micropyt ... -515534326 is tracking some of the history.

There were some fixes recentlyish but it sounds like it's possible that the version you're running might be slightly out of date.

I think the download page hasn't been updated since pybd support was fully merged into the master branch. These were manual builds that were made when the pybd started shipping I think. If you're able to build your own firmware from master that might be worth trying, otherwise I can send you a .dfu file.

I'll find out about getting the downloads page updated to track pybd versions in the same way as other boards.
