emonPi not reconnecting to Wifi

Hi There,I had set up the EmonPi with the wifi wirelessly and it worked fine but when I power off the emonPi and the wifi setup and turn it on again emonpi does not get connected to the wifi.It is not able to broadcast its own wifi now.

Thanks for the help

Hello @Aaradhyaa, when you set up the emonpi the first time did you connect to a WIFI network, or just run in stand alone mode? If you did connect to a wifi network and its not connecting after rebooting can you connect the Pi via ethernet and check the wifi settings in the emoncms wifi config page?

Are you able to connect the emonPi via ethernet then configure wifi via emoncms wifi config?

@glyn.hudson thank you very much for your reply.
I connected it via ethernet and this is what it displayed-

Also if I reset the router I am able to connect it back again.My IotaWatt gets connected every time but not the emonpi.

Great, it looks like it’s connected successfully with IP address http://192.168.1.121. Can you access it?

Could you also post a screenshot of the wifi config page?

Hello glyn
I can access it only when the ethernet is plugged in.
