mega 2560 w/adafruit CC33000 w/sparkfun library

Using Arduino Networking, Protocols, and Devices
#1

Up till i now i've been using an adafruit CC3000 with Sparkfun libraries in order to post to m2x. Thus far, the connection part has been working fine.

However, now that i have gone to the mega for additionally memory, i cannot seem to get connected to the network using the sparkfun libraries. It kicks out an AP connection error message. I loaded up a basic example from each library, and the adafruit library works fine.

i would have thought that maybe it was an initialization problem due to sockets or whatever, but the serial monitor reports that it is initializing fine.

When i first tried to get connected to this website i tried to use the adafruit libraries etc, but i could never get a good compile or good connection with the server. I suppose i can include libraries in this post, but im hoping someone else may have dealt with this issue?

thanks

Ok so i think the problem is definitely in the header, so this is the direction i’ve taken:

sparkfun header:

#define CC3000_INT      3   // Needs to be an interrupt pin (D2/D3)
#define CC3000_EN       5   // Can be any digital pin
#define CC3000_CS       10  // Preferred is pin 10 on Uno

// Connection info data lengths
#define IP_ADDR_LEN     4   // Length of IP address in bytes

// WiFi Constants
char ap_ssid[] = "HOME-61B2";                  // SSID of network
char ap_password[] = "REMOVED";          // Password of network
unsigned int ap_security = WLAN_SEC_WPA2; // Security of network
unsigned int timeout = 30000;             // Milliseconds



// Global Variables
SFE_CC3000 wifi = SFE_CC3000(CC3000_INT, CC3000_EN, CC3000_CS);
SFE_CC3000_Client client = SFE_CC3000_Client(wifi);
M2XStreamClient m2xClient(&client, m2xKey);

stock adafruit header:

#include <Adafruit_CC3000.h>

#include <SPI.h>

// Use hardware SPI for the remaining pins

Adafruit_CC3000 cc3000 = Adafruit_CC3000(ADAFRUIT_CC3000_CS, ADAFRUIT_CC3000_IRQ, ADAFRUIT_CC3000_VBAT,
                                         SPI_CLOCK_DIVIDER); // you can change this clock speed

#define WLAN_SSID       "HOME-61B2"           // cannot be longer than 32 characters

#define IDLE_TIMEOUT_MS  3000      // Amount of time to wait (in milliseconds) with no data 
                                   // received before closing the connection.  If you know the server

M2XStreamClient m2xClient(&clientm2xKey);

the error report for the above is:

EDIT: upgrading firmware to 1.4 solved the problem… for now…
