      I just got my wipy 2.0, and the firmware it came with was missing some crucial functions, such as wlan.ifconfig and both reset cause constants in the machine module. What can I do to get the missing functions and constants?

        As the docs advice it is best to update to the latest firmware before using the product.
        You can do this with the firmware update utility: link.

        Without data you're just another person with an opinion.

          Do you know how long the 'fetching info from device' stage should take? It seemed to get stuck there for me...

            @BluCode A second or less.
            Since you alsready have determined the ancient formware version, the serial connection (cable, port) should be working. And then:

            • did you close the terminal window?
            • did you connect G23 and GND?
            • did you reset the device after that?
            • do cou have an internet connection up? The recent image is fetched during update.

                The upgrade worked in a sense, but bricked my WiPy. I have opened a new thread here: https://forum.pycom.io/topic/1053/wipy-2-0-bricked-after-firmware-update
