    Hmm, been checking the flashair-developers website. All the information is now on there. When I did mine there was nothing on there about station mode or anything llike that.

    Interestingly there is still no mention of setting static IPs in the config file even though you can do it.

    I noticed that also.

    I don't think so.

    I just purchased another Flashair card from Amazon (32G Type III) (Getting ready for a new 3DPrinter) and again had absolutely no problem with connecting to my network or mapping it to my Windows 10 machine.

    If it helps, these are the steps I performed to get my 2nd card running.

    1) The first thing I did was copy the files and folders from my existing card onto my desktop.
    2) Ran the configuration tool on the NEW card, (I just let it fail on the hard drive setup -- no need for it), and set up the WiFi (See Pic)
    3) Opened the CONFIG file on the NEW card and recorded the CID.
    4) Opened the CONFIG file on the COPIED files and folders from my existing card and changed the IP Address to an unused address on my network and change the CID to the new cards CID.
    5) Coped all the files and folders to the new card.
    6) Ran the WiFi configuration tool on the NEW card again.
    7) Rebooted my router and viola, after about 5 min I was mapping the new card.

    I uploaded a video of the process.

    Attachments within posts on this forum are not currently functioning. No idea what the story is there. Could you please post the prototype text that should be in the CONFIG file? (Not as an attachment...)

    With the video full screen (via YouTube rather than this forum) I could read the screen text well enough to copy off and key in the missing CONFIG file parameters. Everything is working slick as you please now. I am using the FlashAir with S3D on a QIDI 3D printer and it makes for a very sweet setup. Thank you very much ServiceXP for making and posting your video, it likely saved me hours of frustration.

    I did find that having the NOISE_CANCEL=2 line present in the CONFIG file seemed to kill off the FlashAir's wifi connection, but all seems to be perfectly functional without that particular line in there. It's working, so I'm not gonna fix it.

    All during this install process I was throughly confused by an SSID issue. Specifically, whose SSID was being referred to by the two entries in the CONFIG file? I finally got it that both the SSID entries (and their password) in the final CONFIG file are the same, and are the one for my home router/access point. I kept thinking they were different, or the FlashAir card's...not so.
