I recently purchased a WiFly shield (WRL-09954) but I am having difficulty running the troubleshooting sketch, viewtopic.php?f=32&t=25129
I am using an Arduino NG (ATmega8) and the WiFly shield (9954) with a 14.7456 MHz crystal.
These are the steps I followed
-
soldered header extensions to the shield
-
plugged shield into my Arduino NG
-
in USB power mode, uploaded the SpiUartTerminal sketch
-
switched Arduino to PWR mode
-
plugged in USB cable, then plugged in AC adapter power cable
-
opened serial monitor
On the serial monitor, the output is stuck at “Attempting to connect to SPI UART…” and there is nothing else. I have tried power cycling and restarting serial monitor several times but each time the result is the same.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
