6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed  

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

I just finished the 6.0.0 upgrade on my MK4 and I can't get the ESP firmware to flash, I get an error each time. At the first step, it tries for 5 seconds or so, then says "Firmware update failed" and all I can do is leave that screen. Tried again after a full restart and I just get the same error.

Help!

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

I didn't restart my MK4 after it failed, I just dove directly into the network menu and retried the wifi install. Maybe it only works on the 2nd attempt? Who knows?

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

Me too, but when that failed I thought maybe a reboot would help, but nope. 🙁 

I plugged in ethernet and it still can't connect to Prusa Connect though, so maybe something else is going on. Maybe I need a factory reset...

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

Same issue with wi-fi flash happened to me and starting wi-fi setup again from settings/network/wi-fi directly after the failure fixed the problem.

Thanks @tom-horsley for this hint.

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

Both of my MK4s said they would update, but never did.  After a couple of reboots and forcing the flash through Prusa Connect,  it finally flashed

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

Flashing failed also on my MK4 .... at the first atempt.
Just restarted the printer and it worked well, with the same stick.
Also Wifi-Setup was working.

Now the BUT .... Wifi now is that extemely slow, it is almost unusable. It was slow before, but still OK, but now 🙁

Printer is printing now, but later I will try to reinstall Wifi in the printers menu, hope that will help.

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

OK, works again after switching the printer of instead of restarting it with the restart-button.
Wifi as slow as usual 🙂

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

Oh snap, mine just worked after cycling power as well! That's the one thing left I didn't try, I was just resetting from the button the control panel!

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

Very weird...

Mine did not connect - then I tried the other wlan with a different key - it worked!
I uploaded the original WLAN settings file - stopped working - and this is the file i used before the flash when installed it...

It seems that the key has an issue in the new ESP FW.

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

solved: the new firmware doesn't like the WPA3 anymore - if i switch back to WPA2 it's working...

WPA3 transition does not help, it seems that the FW has a bug 🙁

RE:

Mine does not work again. Sometimes it does, sometimes not, all in all not usable anymore 🙁
I use WPA2 already, so that seems not to be the main problem (for me).

Am switching to LAN now ....

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

I'm having the same issue.

I have checked, doublechecked that the module is  correctly installed.

But flashing wifi firmware always fails at step 1.

RE: 6.0.0 wifi firmware flashing failed

Encountered the same issue after upgrading to 6.0.0
ESP FW update failed at step 2 - I already had WiFi configured befofe FW update so I thought that I do not need to set it up again... and I was wrong.

I filled in WiFi connection configuration parameters (SSID, pass) in .ini file on the USB disk and even after that it kept failing multiple times in step 2 or somewhere in the middle of step 3.
After about 5 tries it finished successfully.
