Can't get default AP to be visible

[cgarai]

Newbie here. I'm having trouble getting anywhere with my FiPy. I'm trying to get the AP to work just see that I understand some of the basics. I had installed the Hiveeyes platform, but decided I'm not ready for that yet. I have erased the memory and reloaded 1.20.0.rc13. The default AP doesn't appear. If I run the code below, no SSID is returned.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Chris

import pycom
from network import WLAN


wlan = WLAN()

print('Mode ', wlan.mode())
print('Initializing LAN')
wlan.init()
print(' Mode after init() ', wlan.mode())

print('The SSID: ', wlan.ssid())

I finally go it working by erasing again and updating the firmware to 1.20.1.r2. Not sure why it works now. I also noticed that it doesn't default to AP mode on boot. I had to program it to get it into AP mode

Do you have wifi_on_boot enabled? See https://docs.pycom.io/firmwareapi/pycom/pycom/
