As I've said, the Duet does not respond to a long push of its button in the proscribed way. All it will display is the 6 rapid blinks of red, followed by a short pause , then repeated. It does not change to slow red blinks or anything else for that matter. I'm not sure how else to perform a factory reset. Regarding the Controller factory reset: That works fine but will only find the Duet if Ethernet connected. There is no evidence of credentials transferring to the receiver via the coloured lights sequence. Does this mean there is no transfer happening? Do you know if WiFi credentials retained by the receiver when it is powered off? Or perhaps the h/w condition represented by the 6 red blinks overrides the credential transfer/coloured light process? BTW, I've not noticed anything common about the occasions when the setup is lost. The Net::UDAP tool mentioned is currently sounding like my best bet to get to the bottom of this, but I know nothing about that and I'll have to look into it. Thank you for your help. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rockhopper's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35713 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110900 _______________________________________________ Duet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/duet
