Network password
« on: October 10, 2020, 09:48:02 am »
Hi any way to change this, tried yesterday when I did the latest update but wouldn’t have it, currently have quiet a long password in the system, the other week due to a wrong switch flick by me whilst flying I lost the network connection and I couldn’t get the paw back on line without entering the network password on my tablet, I failed to do this until I was back on the ground got me thinking maybe I should have something a little simpler. Are there a minimum number of characters if so that was possibly the issue. Thanks in advance. Nick

Hi Nick,

That’s why I don’t use a network password.  :-\ That’s the last thing I want to be struggling with in a bouncing aircraft - which is when anything like this going wrong always happens!

The other serious problem with the password is there isn’t a ‘reset’ - if you forget it (or set something mis-spelt’) and then get locked out and can’t get back in unless you find the password previously set. The only way I know of to sort it is a complete new software install and start again.

Hope you get it sorted.

Regards

Peter

Actually if you forget the password, you can access it over the wired rj45 interface so no need for a reset
