Wifi setup

Re-entering Configuration Mode

After accidentally entering an incorrect MAC address (BSSID) during setup, I struggled to get the sensor back into configuration mode. Here’s the solution:

1. Unplug the battery.
2. Press and hold the calibration button.
3. While holding the button, plug the battery back in.
4. Release the button after 5 seconds.

(Note: PricelessToolkit has already updated their README to include this information. Kudos to them for the quick update!)

The Wi-Fi Connection Issue

The main issue I faced was a failed Wi-Fi connection due to an incorrect MAC address (BSSID). As mentioned in the README, you need to provide the MAC address of your Wi-Fi access point.

I use a Mesh Wi-Fi system from AVM, and the only access point in range was a mesh repeater. Naturally, I assumed I should use the MAC address of the repeater. However, it turns out that even though my main router (Mesh Master) was out of range, I still needed to use its MAC address for the sensor to connect successfully.

I hope this helps anyone facing similar problems.
