My goals for today are to get both devices (imp and yun) connected to the WIFI and then start testing sensors.
I just followed these directions making sure to cover the top of the Imp with my finger so light didn't leak while doing the BlinkUp process. Super simple and just worked.
This thing was kind of a PITA. The instructions say to power it on and it will show up as an access point with the name ArduinoYun-XXXXXXXXXXXX where the X's are the mac (hardware) address.
My Yun never showed up as an AP (access point), so I used the WLAN reset to do a soft reset first (hold for 5 seconds) and then waited a few minutes and it still didn't show up as an AP. Then I did the hard reset to factory defaults (hold for 30 seconds) and then waited a few minutes it finally worked, I could see the AP in my wireless settings.
I connected to it and updated the configuration and it decided to disappear permantently again. In the process of doing the hard reset for a second time I broke the solder joints on the WLAN switch and had to resolder them.
I finally have it configured now and connected to the WIFI.
I started by running the colorblink tutorial on the imp, but I honestly have no clue how it works at this point. Then I found a complete set of libaries for the hannah board that provide nicer API's to the various sensors, buttons, LED's, and digital and analog headers.
