Hello, I am trying to connect my NOTE-WBGLW to notehub and its connecting just fine using cellular. When I try to force the wireless card to go from mode:auto to wifi so that it only transmits data through wifi, it just wont change. I used card.dfu and its shows that WiFi is on aux mode which again I cant change. Any ideas? ---

Hey @Marios122, welcome to the Blues community forum! To specify the connectivity method to use on your Notecard, the [card.transport](https://dev.blues.io/api-reference/notecard-api/card-requests/latest/#card-transport) request should be used. The request for enabling Wi-Fi only on the device is:- `{"req":"card.transport", "method":"wifi"}` The [card.dfu](https://dev.blues.io/api-reference/notecard-api/card-requests/latest/#card-dfu) request on the other hand is only used for outboard firmware update operations and does not control the transport method. Let us know if this resolves your issue. If you’ve already tried the above request, please send us the full sequence of requests and response and we’d be happy to help. Thanks Youssif ---

Thank you Youssif! It somehow wasnt clear to me that transport is the think to change. ---

I am now trying to connect to my WiFi and although I provided the correct SSID and password, notecard won’t connect to the WiFi. I keep getting this message “Wifi: no access point SSID configured (use card.wifi)” ---

Hey @Marios122, if you haven’t done this already, you can configure the WiFi SSID using the following request: `{"req":"card.wifi", "ssid":"your_ssid_name", "password":"your_ssid_password"}` Replace “your\_ssid\_name” and “your\_ssid\_password” with your actual WiFi credentials. Once you’ve set this up, you can verify that the request was sent correctly with the requst: `{"req":"card.wifi"}` Also, double-check that your WiFi is switched on and within range of the Notecard. **Please note that the Notecard will only connect to 2.4GHz access points** , so if you’re using a 5GHz network, that could be the reason it’s not connecting. If you’ve already done all of the above but the Notecard still isn’t connecting, can you please share the full list of requests and responses leading up to the error? (No need to include your actual WiFi credentials when sharing your request, just the structure is fine). Please also send the response to `{"req":"card.version"}` so that we verify the version number. Relevant links: - [card.wifi request](https://dev.blues.io/api-reference/notecard-api/card-requests/latest/#card-wifi) - [Connecting to a WiFi access point](https://dev.blues.io/guides-and-tutorials/notecard-guides/connecting-to-a-wi-fi-access-point/#connecting-to-a-wi-fi-access-point) - [WiFi notecard not connecting to the access point](https://discuss.blues.com/t/wifi-notecard-not-connecting-to-the-wifi-accesspoint/728) Thanks Youssif ---

Hi Youssif, apparently once I remove my swan from the notecarrier, everything works.I can connect to the WiFi, no sweat. Once I connect the swan, it just doesnt connect. I saw this in the link you shared however, I dont know what the solution is to this since I need to use my swan on the notecarrier for my application. ---

Hey @Marios122 - Thanks sharing the version number. From your description, it sounds like something on the Swan is interfering with the Notecard’s ability to connect over WiFi. You can try flash erasing the Swan or loading a minimal program (e.g. Hello World or Blinky) that doesn’t interact with the Notecard at all (info on programming the Swan is available [here](https://dev.blues.io/quickstart/swan-quickstart/)). This will help determine if the Swan’s program is affecting WiFi communication. If the behaviour persists, you can issue the following requests to the Notecard over USB while the Swan is connected (assuming you are using a Notecarrier F) . This is to inspect the state of the Notecard:- `{"req":"hub.get"}` - to verify if the hub is set correctly. `{"req":"hub.sync.status"}` - to check if there are any sync problems. `{"req":"card.transport"}` - to confirm that WiFi is still the selected transport method. `{"req":"card.wifi"}` - to ensure WiFi credentials are still correctly configured. If you are intentionally programming the Swan to configure the Notecard to communicate over WiFi and you are experiencing this issue, then there may be something in your code that is affecting the behaviour. You’re welcome to share the code here for us to review, or if you prefer you can send it privately via DM or email at [ysaeed@blues.com](mailto:ysaeed@blues.com). Thanks Youssif ---

Hi Youssif - I have the blinky firmware on Swan. Yes, I am using Notecarrier F. Here are the responses to the requests with the Swan connected (I replaced the actual UID & SSID): {“req”:“hub.get”} { “mode”: “periodic”, “host”: “[a.notefile.net](http://a.notefile.net)”, “product”: “myUID”, “device”: “dev:351077454526305”, “vinbound”: “usb:1;high:1440;normal:1440;low:1440;dead:0”, “voutbound”: “usb:1;high:60;normal:120;low:360;dead:0” } {“req”:“hub.sync.status”} { “status”: “wifi: no access point SSID configured (use card.wifi) {wifi-config} {extended-network-failure}”, “mode”: “{modem-off}”, “sync”: true } {“req”:“card.transport”} {“method”:“wifi”} {“req”:“card.wifi”} { “version”: “WFM200.3.12.3”, “ssid”: “mySSID” } At this stage I am programming my notecard from the browser with a USB cable to make sure the Swan firmware is not affecting it. ---

Hey @Marios122 - I have a NOTE-WBGLW here and I tried to replicate your issue multiple times but couldn’t reproduce. Here’s exactly what I did:- 1. Plugged the Swan into a Notecarrier-F with the NOTE-WBGLW screwed in. 2. Connected my [STLINK cable](https://shop.blues.com/products/stlink-v3mini) to the Swan for programming. 3. Flashed the **swan\_blinky** app (attached) and verified that the LED blinks as expected. 4. Used the [in-browser terminal](https://dev.blues.io/terminal/) to issue the following requests to the Notecard: a. `{"req":"card.restore", "delete":true, "connected":true}` (This factory restores the Notecard and resets it on Notehub. More details [here](https://dev.blues.io/api-reference/notecard-api/card-requests/latest/#card-restore)). b. `{"req":"card.transport", "method":"wifi"}` c. `{"req":"card.wifi", "ssid":"my_ssid", "password":"my_password"}` d. `{"req":"hub.set", "product":"my_product_uid", "sync":true}` e. (After ~30 seconds) `{"req":"hub.sync.status"}` Can you please follow the above steps exactly in this order? Even if you’ve already done similar steps, repeating them in this sequence can help surface any differences between our setups. If the issue persists, try issuing **trace** immediately after step 4a (after the Notecard reboots) then press **ENTER**. This is to capture a detailed log of what’s happening. You can share the full trace output here, just **be sure to remove or obscure your SSID and password in the log**.

Hi Youssif, I will run these commands and get back to you in a bit but just wanted to let you know that im not using stlink. I am using the usb cable directly although I dont see how this affects anything since I tried all combinations with the swan connected to usb and/or disconnected and get the same issue. ---

Thanks for sending the log - I’ll review it and get back to you. One thing I forgot to ask: Are you using a USB hub to power your setup (with both the Swan and the Notecard connected via USB)? If this is the case, can you try powering the Notecarrier F directly from a plugged laptop/PC or a dedicated power supply instead of a USB hub? This is to ensure that the Notecard is getting enough power and will help rule out power issues, which could be a factor here, especially since the Notecard connects immediately when the Swan is removed. Regarding your earlier comemnt, using STLink is not mandatory as long as you can program the Swan and confirm that the blinky application is running as expected (i.e. the LED blinks at the expected fast rate). I’ll also test without an STLink here to ensure our setups match. Thanks Youssif ---

Hi Youssif, I am connecting the USB to my laptop. I also tried having both usb cables connected (Swan and Notecarrier F) but I still get the same behavior. Flashing works fine with USB and firmware on the swan works as expected even with blinky and even when programming the notecard through the swan. ---

Hi Youssif, one more detail I failed to provide earlier is that I am using Notecarrier AF v1.7. ---

Thanks for sharing the logs and for pointing out that you’re using the Notecarrier AF. This is important as I’ve been testing with a Notecarrier F v1.3, which could explain why we’re seeing different results. Also, the Notecarrier AF is deprecated, and the NOTE-WBGLW is not one of the Notecards that is [officially compatible](https://dev.blues.io/datasheets/notecarrier-datasheet/notecarrier-af/#compatible-notecards) with it. I reviewed the trace log in detail, and nothing immediately stands out beyond what we’ve already discussed. The repeated connection failures still suggest that the SSID or password might be incorrect (as indicated by the multiple failed attempts in the log). Given that the Notecard eventually connects when the Swan is removed, this points to either the Swan somehow affecting the credentials, or more likely a potential power issue that gets resolved when the Swan is removed. I can suggest a few more things to try (e.g. trying a different access point, different Notecard firmware, powering device differently, etc), but the best course of action would be to transition your development to a [Notecarrier F](https://blues.com/products/notecarrier/notecarrier-f/). It has several enhancements over the Notecarrier AF, including improved power supply circuitry, which could be the root cause of this behaviour. Thanks Youssif ---

Hi Youssif, thank you very much for your efforts. I will shift to Notecarrier F.
