@Xykon
it worked ! Thank you.

@rskoniec

To make it work you have to do:

import network
wlan = network.WLAN(mode=network.WLAN.STA)

You have only imported the network module, therefore WLAN.STA cannot be resolved.

Cheers,
Daniel

@daniel Thank you. My mistake. But the same mistake is in the docs https://docs.pycom.io/pycom_esp32/library/network.WLAN.html so it should be corrected.

@Xykon where it is downloaded?

The dialog based updater downloads to ${TEMP_DIR}/tmpfile I haven't checked the gui based updater. The update binary is deleted after it is flashed.

You can download the firmware packages directly without the updater:

# You can use wget -qO- instead of curl -sL
#For WiPy2:
curl -sL "https://software.pycom.io/findupgrade?key=wipy.wipy%20with%20esp32&redirect=false&type=all"

#For LoPy 868:
curl -sL "https://software.pycom.io/findupgrade?key=lopy.lopy%20with%20esp32.868&redirect=false&type=all"

#For LoPy 915:
curl -sL "https://software.pycom.io/findupgrade?key=lopy.lopy%20with%20esp32.915&redirect=false&type=all"

You should get an output similar to this:

{"key":"lopy.lopy with esp32.868","file":"https://software.pycom.io/downloads/1.0.0.b2-LoPy_868.tar.gz","version":"1.0.0.b2","intVersion":67108994,"hash":"7fbe262192c713e01e7e049de93d522ed38c71e4"}

The "file" attribute shows the direct link to the firmware binary files. You can then download the file with wget "https://software.pycom.io/downloads/1.0.0.b2-LoPy_868.tar.gz" and use bin/updater.py -t 1.0.0.b2-LoPy_868.tar.gz -p /dev/ttyUSB0

ble.scan() is failing with new firmware release 1.0.0.b2.

This is due to some unhandled exception:

I am have a completely different problem with the updater on windows 10. When I try to run it, it just hangs. I can't even close the file window.

[rcomeau]

I don't know what firmware version I am running, because I can't run the updater. But when I do a:
machine.reset(), I get a traceback error saying:
File "boot.py" line 11 in <module>
Attribute error: "module" object has no attribute 'SOFT_RESET'

@rcomeau I'm sorry to hear about your issues and thanks for the report regarding Windows 10. We'll test it and provide a fix asap.

It looks like you are running an old firmware. In order to get your firmware version try:

import os
print(os.uname().release)

@RSK please update to 1.0.1.b1 :-)

[daniel]

@rskoniec thanks. I'll correct that immediately.
