Solo WiFi Command Not Working

[staleyj1]

When I run

solo wifi --name=ssid --password=password

I get this in the command prompt:

connecting to solo..

It is stuck at this point. Is there something I need to download for it to run? Or is there a fix around this?

Just to be very clear, you are entering the actual value of your home SSID and password right?

e.g.

solo wifi --name=myhomeinternetnetwork --password=mysecretpasswordformynetwork

YOu must previously have SSH'd into your vehicle at least once.

I had a problem on this for a while which ended up being bad firmware on the router, so you might want to update that (or try with another router or a phone hotspot to verify that it is not a router problem).

Good luck.

Yes I am. When I input this command in the command line

solo wifi --name=myhomeinternetnetwork --password=mysecretpasswordformynetwork

This is what I get.
Usage:
solo info
solo wifi --name= [--password=

]
solo flash (drone|controller|both) (latest|current|factory|) [--clean]
solo flash --list
solo flash pixhawk
solo provision
solo resize
solo logs (download)
solo install-pip
solo install-smart
solo install-runit
solo video (acquire|restore)
solo script [...]

It doesn’t seem to do anything, just brings the solo options up again. However, when I put quotes around myhomeinternetnetwork and mysecretpasswordformynetwork, it says

Connecting to controller…

I tried my hotspot and got the same issue. Is there anything I am missing?

What operating system are you using? If it's windows 10 you're out of luck as Solo CLI doesn't work on windows 10

[hdtechk]

I haven't tried it but Windows 10 has ability to run programs in compatible mode for widows 7 and 8

@hdtechk @abcgefg Solo CLI does work on Windows 10 for pretty much everything (possible exception of bundling scripts). @staleyj1 sorry, missed your post - no idea sorry. Mine says connecting to vehicle and then does reboots etc as stated in the docs. I did have a problem with this when I tried using CLI before connecting via SSH (as this sets up keys etc).

PS I am no longer working for 3DRobotics, so not involved in this tool much anymore.

The problem is related to the paramiko library. Try to install the version 2.0.5.
