Arduino Yún first wifi access for configuration: not assign any IP!

Official Hardware Classic Yún

Hi

I'm doing my first power on with Arduino Yún: power green led on, L13 red led blinking (2 fast, 1 slow).
From my MacBook I'm able to connect to the AP "Arduino Yun - XXXXXXX", but no IP is assigned to my pc.

I tryed also to press the Wifi rest button for 30 seconds, nothing changed.

Any suggestion?

Same here on Win7! Is this right. I connect to a new Wifi net (and of cause disconnect from my current net) end get an IP from the Yun. So the Yun acts as an AP by default??

After some trials I could connect to the Yun not over http://arduino.local/ but over the IP.

After the initial configuration steps the Yun shows up in the Arduino IDE but I can not upload any file, error:

Sketch uses 5,132 bytes (17%) of program storage space. Maximum is 28,672 bytes.
Global variables use 153 bytes (5%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2,407 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2,560 bytes.
avrdude: AVR device not responding
avrdude: initialization failed, rc=-1
Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override
this check.

Atfer installing Bonjour I can connect to http://arduino.local but it is still not possible tu upload sketches. :frowning: disappointing this evening!

@Carlo, the yun exposes a DHCP server and should give you an IP address once you connect to its wifi. I'm not a mac expert so I don't have specific hints. Can you try with another computer? Your smartphone is fine for a test

@Clevens have you selected Arduino Yun from Board menu of the IDE?

Yes, I have selected the Yun as board and also the Yun IP in the port menu.

That error message (when using a yun) usually shows up if you selected a different board (like a leonardo) to program the yun via wifi
Does it show up if you program the yun via usb cable?

I checked my firewall (Win7 OS), for C:\program files\arduino\java\bin\javaw.exe and found some doublets--why there are doubles, I don't know--and tweaked this. After restarting Arduino IDE an error message about the driver appears. After restarting again the IDE shows up without any problem.

Now connecting and uploading a sketch via COM and also via Wifi is possible. I don't know what the solution was., I would recommend to check firewalls settings and I think the Yun needs more time than expected to boot up so be patient and wait a bit longer after powering.
