RE: FlashPAP - FlashAir WiFi SD card utility - GuyScharf - 06-07-2020
I have a 32GB FlashAir card. Here is my CONFIG file for use with FlashPap:
[Vendor]
CIPATH=/DCIM/100__TSB/FA000001.JPG
APPMODE=5
APPNETWORKKEY=*****************
VERSION=F15DBW3BW4.00.01
CID=02544d535733324755e2d7ca7a011c01
PRODUCT=FlashAir
VENDOR=TOSHIBA
APPNAME=flashair
MASTERCODE=0123456789AB
LOCK=1
APPSSID=BlueDragon
DHCP_Enabled=NO
IP_Address=192.168.20.77
SUBNET_MASK=255.255.255.0
UPLOAD=1
NOISE_CANCEL=0
STA_RETRY_CT=0
DNSMODE=1
APPAUTOTIME=0
TIMEZONE=-28
WebDAV=1
Note especially the APPMODE=5. APPSSID is the name of your network. My IP address is outside of my DHCP range. Of course, you must set APPNETWORKKEY to your network password any time you update the CONFIG file.
The "expired" message is related to DHCP. If you IP address is now outside the DHCP range, that message should not have any significance. You can always reboot your router if you suspect it is confused.

After rebooting your router, try pinging the ip address of the FlashAir card to see if it is reachable.
Open Terminal and type the following:
Code:
ping -c5 192.168.1.220You can also try this in Terminal to see if it lists the FlashAir card on your network:
Code:
arp -aWhich editor did you use to modify the config file?
RE: FlashPAP - FlashAir WiFi SD card utility - todivefor - 06-08-2020
GuyScharf my config looks about the same as yours with some of values different. I changed APPMODE=4 to 5 which Crimson Nape had asked me change before. I added NOISE_CANCEL=0 and WebDAV=1. These produced no change.
Jeff8356, I am using Smultron editor on my Macbook Pro, 10.15.4. I am unable to ping my address 192.168.1.220. I did get something interesting from arp -a: ? (192.168.1.220) at (incomplete) on en0 ifscope [ethernet]. I have my mac addr set as ec:21:e5:36:7a:e8 from back of SD CARD.

Another thought; Each time you edit the CONFIG file, the "APPNETWORKKEY=" will display asterisks (****). You must re-enter your password each time you edit this file or your password will be the asterisks.
RE: FlashPAP - FlashAir WiFi SD card utility - todivefor - 06-08-2020
I changed my editor to end lines with CRLF. Still no good.

My password has never changed to *******, still displayable PW.

How far away are you from your access point?
RE: FlashPAP - FlashAir WiFi SD card utility - todivefor - 06-08-2020
About 4 feet when it's in my computer, where it is now.
RE: FlashPAP - FlashAir WiFi SD card utility - Crimson Nape - 06-08-2020
OK, does your Access point have a bandwidth selector (20 and/or 40 MHz) option? The FlashAir needs the 20 MHz bandwidth. Other than a FlashAir, most 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi devices use the 40 MHz bandwidth for a higher throughput.
Update:
It bothered me that your password was not being encrypted. I went back and looked at my FlashAir using both Windows7 and Linux. Both had the password encrypted. This non-encryption has me "concerned" (for lack of a better word this morning).
RE: FlashPAP - FlashAir WiFi SD card utility - todivefor - 06-08-2020
I do not see bandwidth (20 / 40) selector in any of my menus for router. I'm thinking that my password never gets set to ******s because it has never been accessed.
The mac addr being marked incomplete seems significant to me, but I must admit I don't know what that means. Something about arp sending something to IP, but not getting a mac addr response? After a time it is removed from the arp table. This is exactly what I am seeing. arp -a shows my 192.168.1.220 IP with imcomplete, then a little later it is gone.
RE: FlashPAP - FlashAir WiFi SD card utility - Jeff8356 - 06-08-2020
For some reason your network is not recognizing the mac address of the card.
Is there a setting in your router to "Only allow certain Mac addresses" or "certain computers" or something similar?
I'm not familiar with the editor you mentioned, I use BBedit (formerly TextWrangler). Any chance it left some unintended whitespace behind in the config file? Or "autocorrected" something it shouldn't have?
