Hi,
I have another producers (blackboxstudio@eBay) package for the cc3000, but even with it I get only the same functionality. I even converted the voltage levels from Arduino to chip with voltage divider and amplified the voltage levels from the chip to Arduino with transistors. I was using Arduino with 5V logic, whereas the cc3000 is in the 3,3V range.
I believe that the chip is working, but I have missed something. Does anybody else has any insight on this matter?
