CircuitPython version

Adafruit CircuitPython 8.2.0-beta.0 on 2023-05-24; Adafruit Feather ESP32-S2 TFT with ESP32S2

Code/REPL

import wifi
 wifi.radio.connect('...','...')

Behavior

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
ConnectionError: Unknown failure 15

Description

This test done in the REPL window of mu 1.2.0.

In another testscript with wifi scanning networks results, the transmission I was trying to connect to (above) was reported with:

network ssid: '... ', channel: 4, rssi: -31

Error might be related to (closed) issue #7127

Additional information

No response

I can't reproduce this on my ESP32-S2 with 8.2.0-beta.0 (or prior). 4WAY_HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT can happen intermittently, particularly if the signal is weak.

Are you ever able to connect? If so, what is the RSSI as seen from the Feather, and as seen from the Access Point?

Is connect successful on prior releases on the same board and in the same physical environment (same AP, same distance from AP, etc.)?

If you catch the exception and retry, does it eventually connect? Something like...

import time
import os
import wifi

time.sleep(3)  # wait for serial

while not wifi.radio.connected:
    try:
        wifi.radio.connect(os.getenv("WIFI_SSID"), os.getenv("WIFI_PASSWORD"))
    except Exception as ex:
        print(ex)
    time.sleep(5)
print(wifi.radio.connected)

Problem solved: I made a mistake. I mixed the passwords of the two SSID's of the WiFi system (Netgear Orbi Satellites).

soft reboot

Auto-reload is on. Simply save files over USB to run them or enter REPL to disable.
