My Raspberry Pi Pico W doesn't connect to WipperSnapper

Post by Nwllen »

Hello. I tried numerous of times to connect my Pico w to WipperSnapper with no success unforunately. I completed every step of the tutorial on how to connect my device to WipperSnapper and my builtin led is just blinking incrementing ammount of times (first it blinks 3 times and stops, then 4, then 5 etc) untill it stays on for a few seconds. Then the device it's doing a reset probably (it disconnects from the USB and reconnects) and doing it all over again. I don't know what to do actually

Is your Pi Pico W working well individually? I mean, without the widersnapper. Can you program it successfully with Thonny or Arduino IDE?

Hi - we have just released WipperSnapper beta 74. This includes PR #514 which addresses issues with the Pico W infinite reboot loop issue caused by WiFi failing to connect.

Please give this a try and let me know if you are still experiencing issues.
