Troubleshooting

Common issues

I setup FlapOS but I can’t reach it

If FlapOS cannot successfuly connect to your Wi-Fi network (e.g. because of a wrong password), it will reboot back into configuration mode, you should be able to reconnect to it Wi-Fi network and configure it again.

How can I reset or change the mode?

Long press on the RESET button, FlapOS will reboot back into configuration mode.

I can’t associate using the WPS button

This feature is not implemented in the current version of the firmware. See Setup to know how to connect to your Wi-Fi network.

LEDs signification

Configuration mode

In configuration mode, the led will blink orange while scanning the available Wi-Fi and then stop blinking when ready to be configured. Once configured, the led will blink blue while trying to connect to the Wi-Fi.

Client mode

In client mode, the led will then blink green while trying to connect to the server (flapit-server) and then stop blinking once connected.

Server mode

In server mode, the led will turn green as soon as the Flapit is connected to the Wi-Fi.

Error

If the Flapit gets disconnected for any reason, the led will blink orange fast and try to reconnect to the Wi-Fi every 5 seconds.
