I messed up the WiFi password. Correct SSID, but wrong password. Bulb is not accessible now. Tried 7 fast power cycle, no changes, can't see bulb in LAN, bulb is not in WiFi AP mode.
Any other way to recover bulb short of serial flashing?
It is always very time-consuming to buy digital gadgets. Whenever we go shopping offline, the shopkeeper never explains to us the features. So, I think online shopping is the best way to shop for digital gadgets. A few days ago, I found a very useful WiFi dongle on this article on HighShop. This is very easy to carry and easy to connect.
Thanks @athom. I did manage to serial flash one bulb I messed up using the very well marked test points on the AJW-05_8285 board of the bulb in this post:
Thanks for this very helpful pcb marking and pinout on this board, though!
Hoping there is an easier way to recover from common (stupid user) error of entering correct SSID but wrong password. Getting to the AJW-05_8285 board is a pain, reserved for last resort before giving up. This error was made on a factory fresh Athom RGBW bulb.
