Unable to scan wifi networks with HERO7

Open fpieterse opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Problem: I'm trying to connect a HERO7 to a wifi access point using https://github.com/KonradIT/goprowifihack/blob/master/HERO7/HERO7-Commands.md#connecting-to-a-wifi-network

Details:

If I do the scan I get {"scan_id":1} If I then try to list the results it returns a json string with no results: { "scan_id": 1, "total": 0, "index": 0, "index_count": 0, "ssid_array": [] } There are definitely wifi networks that the GoPro should be able to see, I'm not sure if I'm missing a step or a requirement.

  • GoPro Camera(s): HERO7

  • Firmware Version: 1.9

  • Steps to reproduce: Camera on, wireless connection on. Connect computer to camera's access point. http://10.5.5.9/gp/gpControl/command/wireless/ssid/scan?p=1 http://10.5.5.9/gp/gpControl/command/wireless/ssid/list

  • Happens every time? [Y/N]: yes

Hi @fpieterse

I have managed to get the full list of local wifi networks by sending http://10.5.5.9/gp/gpControl/command/wireless/ssid/list multiple times.

Then I can connect to my local SSID (configured IP 10.5.5.X) with select command and see the GoPro in my router network map. Unfortunately, the connection doesn't last long, after 10 seconds, the GoPro is automatically kicked off my local network.

Has anyone experienced this?

I have tried with both v7 and v8 editions
