Wifi module
5.2
Compatible board
The WLAN modules only work with boards from revision 1.2
(recognizable by the blue voltage terminal and two buttons
below the USB interface, as shown in the video on the product
page). In the meantime it turned out that some batches of this
revision were equipped with weaker voltage regulators. If your
module's LED does not light up properly after plugging it in, but
e.g. only glows, please request a free replacement board from
us. On the product page of the WLAN module you can see a
comparison photo of the voltage regulators.

Connection with W-LAN repeater
Depending on the repeater manufacturer and model, you may
have to trigger WPS pairing either at the router (e.g. FritzBox)
or directly at the next repeater. Some routers do not
automatically loop through the WPS signal from the router.
After successful connection, the module will always contact
the
WLAN
source
with
the
strongest
signal.
