First: I have NEVER worked with Telnet.  

- I have WLAN enabled (can see the neighbor's network).
- Under Windows Features I have enabled Telnet
- Raspberry Pico W was flashed with "2023-02-15_193513_PicoMiteWebV5.07.07a16" and
"OPTION TELNET CONSOLE ON" was executed
- Raspberry Pico W hangs on separate power supply and flashes
- When I enter "telnet 192.168.1.111" in the console, I get the error message:
"Could not connect to host, on port 23: connection error"

Also when I start TeraTerm (with the INI from Peter) I get the error message: "Connection timed out".

What am I doing wrong???  

THANKS!

Frank

Frank, can you PING the Pico ?
Disable the Windos Firewall globally.

You are shure about the correct IP?
Look at your DHCP Server.

You need to enable wifi

OPTION WIFI ssid$, password$

Then when the Pico boots it will tell you its address. 192.168.1.111 is just the address my pico uses

Ok, I think I'm missing any basics here - can someone give me a step-by-step guide for dummies? (I have no experience with network...    )

I'm desperately searching the manual - how can I force a reboot again???

Hello Frank,
First connect the Pico to the network with >OPTION WIFI "your ssid", "password"<.
After the reboot you will get the IP address that you need to use for Teraterm.

Sorry, I'm still using Win7.

Regards
Michael

... wird schon!

Power off/on? (USB-Hub with switches)

Commonly a label on your router.

(Or look in your OS settings if using WiFi.)

Hi John,

I think I understand.

I assumed that DIRECTLY from my computer can access it. So I DO NOT need to activate the computer's WiFi but the WiFi of the router to which the computer is connected???

SSID = your network/Wifi name.
Password = Your Wifi password.

Ok, then I will have to activate a separate WLAN and connect my computer to this router. My "normal" WLAN is too far away here...

Ah. I guessed you'd have WiFi within range of your Pico W.

MANY THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FOR YOUR HELP!

No sooner do you do it right, than it works!  

I have now connected a separate router with activated WLAN to my computer, read the SSID from it and entered it together with the WLAN password into the PicoMite.
