If you log into the wifi attachment in command mode, you can use this command:
Check the manual for instructions on how to enter command mode.

Well I logged in, used ftp u and it connected to the ftp but they just ran these continual gray lines of nothing, very strange.
So After 20 minutes I disconnected, reset to factory settings and now I cannot get it to take wifi settings through the wifi utility and I cannot log in through putty.

factory settings restore baud rate back to 9600.
Try following these then:

The latest firmware is 4.41. Which version do you have now?

I had gone back to 9600 baud and was finally able to get in, ran the wifi set up through command line, but after reboot it still never connected. Now I cant get back in........GRR !!!

SSID and passphrase are case sensitive.
Can you make sure you have the exact same case?

Also, Join needs to be 1 if you manually set it up.
If you run the macro, it will set it to 1 automatically.
