I have a question regarding the Wifi101 firmware update. In a nutshell, when I try to check the wifi101 firmware version I get the below message:
Following this instruction https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-atwinc1500-wifi-module-breakout/updating-firmware, I tried to resolve the issue by updating the wifi101 firmware version. But then I started getting this error (see the image attached).WiFi101 firmware check.
WiFi101 shield: WiFi101 firmware check.
WiFi101 shield: DETECTED
Firmware version installed: 19.4.4
Latest firmware version available : 19.6.1
Check result: NOT PASSED
- The firmware version on the shield do not match the
version required by the library, you may experience
issues or failures.
Here are the boards I have :Programmer not responding
- Elegoo Mega 2560 R3 (cheaper equivalent of Arduino Mega 2560 - ATmega2560 micro-controller board)
- Adafruit WINC1500 WiFi Shield with uFL Connector
Long story short, I have no idea how to fix this issue, I have been Googling and reading about it. There are similar cases like this one viewtopic.php?f=31&t=91239 but I tried what they discussed and it didn't work.
Interestingly when I try the Model A wifi chip firmware(see image attached) then the programmer goes just fine and I can update the firmware to this old version. But on my wifi101 chip it writes that the chip model is B (not A). With this I can't connect to the network!!!! Any help will be appreciate it folks
Thanks
