WiFly Arduino 1.0 library, weird issues on client.println

Hi,

I’m having unknown/very weird issues with the WiFly board/library for Arduino 1.0… Please help.

I’m trying to tweet using my Arduino and WiFly, and it would appear as though the Arduino is halting on client.println. While trying to debug I used the fast client example without changing a single line of code and had a similar problem.

Then after looking at my twitter account I noticed that it did actually post and once or twice despite the fact that it appears to halt on the first client.println. After continuous testing I have noticed the Arduino restarting, halting and performing the tweet randomly. But what remains constant is it doesn’t appear to want to do a serial print once its done tweeting to indicate that it’s completed. The same problems with the provided examples of the latest WiFly Shield’s library “fast client” with out altering the code.

Could this mean that I may need a update to the WiFly library? It wouldn’t be the first time that I bought a WiFi chip on a development board with the wrong firmware on it. Can someone please tell me what firmware I should be running and where I can get it, if I need to update it.

Also… I just had a brainwave while writing this post that my USB may be providing insufficient power, thus causing a voltage drop on WiFi TX… I’m gonna test that theory but wanted to know if anyone else has been having this problem.

Thanks in advance!
