Hi, I am trying to connect my Edge controller to my laptop however I only have one WiFi module. Is it possible to connect to the Edge without requiring a second WiFi module connected to my computer ?
I have attempted to connect to the Edge with only the one WiFi module. I am able to connect via my phone however there is no internet access, and when I try to connect on my laptop there appears to be internet access but I am told that I ‘can’t connect to this network’.
Additionally, when I connect the Edge to a power source, after the WiFi led has turned blue, the status led changes from white to constant flashing orange/yellow. I have referred to this document: LED status | Edge , but unlike the two fast blinks in succession for ‘pre-arm checks failure’ , the flashing is constant.
If the laptop you want to use for GCS supports 5.8 GHz Wi-Fi connection, you can connect it to Edge Wi-Fi network without using the second Wi-Fi module. Otherwise, you need to connect the second module to your laptop.
The Edge appears to create a WiFi network. I am able to connect to it on my phone however there is no internet, and I am unable to load any information when I input the IP address into my browser. The network is detected on my laptop when I set my preferred band to 5GHz, however I am unable to connect to it.
I have been unable to get the QGC to detect the Edge apart from for firmware updates.
