Description

Sorry in advance, I am new to this.

I am trying to connect my new amazon dash buttons to my network after completing the hack device part (received green LED once the sound was played).

When I put y to the question "Is the blue light flashing?", 5 seconds later the blue light immediately stops flashing and then nothing happens. A few seconds after this, I get the error Timeout connecting to network.

If I am connected to any network (either my home network or the Amazon ConfigureMe network), I get the following error message:

Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A) :
Set failed on device wlan0; Operation already in progress.

So I have to disconnect from any network before running the configure command.

I have tried connecting to the button's wifi network, visiting http://192.168.0.1/?amzn_ssid=<wifi_network_name>&amzn_pw=<wifi_network_pw> but again, as soon as I visit this web page the button immediately stops blinking and turns off

It turns out even though the device is shutting off when trying to connect to wifi, the process is completing successfully. The CLI isn't working for me, but visiting the URL/IP address above seems to configure the device correctly.
