• After the firmware is powered on, it will try to connect to the Internet by default after the LED light in the panel has been rolled over. You may notice that if the tool or artificial Ctrl + C stops at this time, there will be no connection to the Internet. The following code is required

mport wifi # booy.py default enable
wifi.try_connect()

• As shown below, import wifi is invoked by default in boot.py, so you can also call wifi.try_connect() directly from REPL.

• If something goes wrong during the tool run, use another serial port tool to view the output, such as the windows-comdbg.zip provided under Release

• Once you're in distribution mode, you'll need to use an android phone to install the distribution software provided by Release

• Take android-smartconfig.apk as an example, connect the mobile phone to WIFI first, then connect the board to the same WIFI, and then input the password of the WIFI to the software, which will tell the board how to connect to the WIFI.
