Sold C64 wifi modem

[jonni]

I I have problem and need to reset it back to default. How can I do it with the reset button ?

If you look modem source codes you can find comment in the code:

// Hold for 5 seconds to switch to 300 baud
// Slow flash: keep holding
// Fast flash: let go

Thanks. That got it back to 300 Need to configure. It refuses to connect to my wifi maybe because of the SSID ? The SSID is two words - It called "Chris Wifi"

Yes it might have problems with space and/or upper case names (as C64 key mapping might cause issues), personally I just use lowercase oneword ssid for the c64.

Ok, I managed to changed the baud to 2400 ok but it wont connect to my wifi. Maybe the range is not as powerful as of the iphone and imac or maybe its a problem from my side. I know for sure the wifi modem is good and a very nice product but i need to find how to set it up. I had same issues with the wifimodem232 on my amiga

Usually I use it as UP9600 by following the instructions from

Hey Jonni,
Based on the design you made these from, do you think a speaker can be added to it for the connect sounds etc?

Well its a wifi modem, so there really isn't that much of sound to connect to. But if you want to play for example piezo when issuing connect command, then it is quite easy, just like playing piezo with any esp8266 devices.

For example you can look hints from here https://techtutorialsx.com/2016/05/07/esp826-controlling-a-buzzer/

You can connect signal for example to D3 and D4 as they are currently unused, and you can take power from vin pin. So you can code custom version and upload it through usb port.

Br, Jonni

Thanks! That's interesting. I Was thinking of a piezo speaker indeed! To hear those lovely connect sounds
