RTK Express OTA FW update issues

Hello:

I have a new RTK Express, and was recently setting it up on wifi directly. Once I got it online, and receiving rtk corrections directly from rtk2go, I looked up and saw that its fw version of 3.8 was slightly out of date: 3.9 was out. So, I figured I’d go ahead and update to 3.9. I hit the update button in the web config gui. The button turned grey like its thinking…and just sat there…for a long time…and appeared to do nothing…

After 30 minutes, opened a new tab, went into the web config window again, and it said I could update online…

I tried rebooting the RTK Express just in case it was successful, but it booted up at 3.8 still. I tried the fw update button again…no difference.

I tried it a 3rd time on a different day, and it still did not update.

Does OTA updating work from fw 3.8? I haven’t tried any of the other update methods, as the online manual says the OTA update is preferred.

Sorry for the confusion! You found the one bug in v3.8 - it being that OTA broke. We recommend the GUI to get to v3.9 where OTA is fixed: https://docs.sparkfun.com/SparkFun_RTK_ … re_update/
