Serial Terminal behaviour on MKR1000

On Win 8.1 using Chrome when using MKR1000 example WiFiWebServer this compiles correctly but the serial monitor looses usb connection after printing 'WiFi connected'. If an external serial terminal is connected eg Putty and no recompile but merely a restart the program functions as expected and shows all text.

Hi @sabiwa,
what do you mean with 'looses usb connection', the serial monitor panel becomes grey? There is a message printed in it?

I've got similar problem. With mkr1000 (may be other boards) and Chrome/Win10, I loose sometimes connection between terminal and the board.
The terminal is not dimmed but the Serial.print() from the board are not displayed.
If I refresh the page, sometimes it works again but other times, I have to pause/kill and run again the plugin Arduine Create Agent and click on Upload and Save on the website to make all work again.

Opening an issue about that, we'll try to reproduce the issue. Thanks

If you get a chance could you see if it does similar on the regular IDE with the serial monitor open on a long run.

@ smellai
Where can I check the full issues list as I only see a couple on github and most look older than a couple of months. I would like to track this one for sure.

@Ballscrewbob at the moment the repository is private, we were planning to have a public issues tracking system, we'll let you know when it will be available.

Hello,
it's an issue that happens every time ? how often?
Using putty always resolves?

thanks

Hi @sabiwa,
are you using the wifi101 example or another library? You should use the wifi101 one with mkr1000
