Hello
I can connect Wifi link by phone and notebook to 192.168.4.1 by AP mode

but wifi updater will not connect to 192.168.4.1
So I can't update my wifi module

I even tried client mode and also connecting by phone, notebook, desktop PC was OK with internal IP
but wifi updater will not connect to it with same internal ip

My computer is running windows 10, wifi link version is 2.0.2 and it is currently only connected to battery(Spirit FBL is not connected)

What should I do?

Hello,

please try to start Wifi-Link updater as Administrator.

I guess the problem is in a permissions.

I have tried that and also tried adding it to firewall list.
But no good.
error message is always "Module with IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xx was not found Please enter a correct IP address"

Connecting by web browers is OK, Android App is OK, Spirit Settings is OK (by Ctrl + W)
Only update is not working

Hello Vernix,

I had the same problem, but it can easily solved - I think you have wifi activatet for your home-net - Please deactivate it -
Power up your wifi-link once again and then look new wifi-connections and you will see wifi-link for example D45, I dont know it exactly anymore. Activate then this connection. After you have done that you will see an connection without internet.
At this point you can easily update your wifi-link to thel atest version -
So it worked for me -

Best regards
Matthes

Please try to turn off your ethernet -if used.
Or unplug the cable so that just Wifi network with the wifi-link is active.

If connection through the browser is working, it is good sign. It should work immediately then.

I connected to wifi-link directly, as you can see in attach picture.
connecting with web browser is OK
but updating do not work

Since my wifi-link version is old (2.0.2) Can I try older version of firmware?

Maybe the problem is where the Wifi-Link updater is installed.

Could you install it somewhere else? It is possible there is problem with a chinese characters. So installing it somewhere where is no chinese character might resolve it.

It should work with any version, independent of what is installed in the module.

I am not sure that this is solution
but as you mentioned there are some problems with folder name and also account name
So I used another notebook that had english windows login account
and it worked!
