No Access Point or SSID

[robi sen]

Hello all,

I am very new to the pycom world and the FiPy. I have few FiPy boards but no development board based on the understanding that it can be used standalone. My issue is that after I supply power to the board, and see the blue light every few seconds, I do not see an Access Point on my wireless scanner. I am assuming I misunderstood something but the documentation left me with the idea that after the FiPy booted up I would be able to see the ssid and telnet. Am I wrong and I have to use a USB to serial>?

Thanks in advance
