Hi Dejans, thanks for the detailed response!
To answer your questions. I have the same error message as Michael, but my Actual says 0x8888888.
We have 3 7002DKs that I tried flashing shell example to, all of them getting the same error.
When I first worked on the 7002DK, my desk had a router near it, and when it started getting the error, I showed it to my colleague in another room (that didn't have a router), and it worked after resetting, so we decided it may be interference from the router.
I can't recall how often the error appeared, but from yesterday, it was everytime I flashed wifi code to the DKs.
Rebooting the device did not help, I tried both --reset and --recover.
I did receive a reply from simonr that I should manually set the MAC address to the OTP memory.. I will give it a shot today. iirc my code used to have a section where it manually sets the MAC address, which I am not doing now. wifi_nrf library boot_sig check failed

I will give you an update sometime today or tomorrow!

Hi,

Which nrf7002-dk board revision do you use?

Hi erichotterbeefcurry

Could you please confirm that you see exactly the same error as Michael?

Could you please provide more information about your environment?

You mentioned that you needed to move devices to another room for them to be able to work as expected. Could you provide more information on what has changed since then and now the error started to appear again?

What was running on your devices and where were they located (same room, different room, close to each other or not)?

When and how often did the error appear? Is the error intermittent or permanent?

Did rebooting the device help, as mentioned by Michael?

Best regards,
Dejan

Hey Michael, I am back to the 7002dk and all three boards are getting this error for me. Did you ever figure out a solution to this?

Copy that. It seems to be interference by a wifi router in our room... When I go to another room that's relatively far from the router, the wifi boots up and the scan works perfectly.

I am not bothering to try to fix. At least for me, the error only happens after flashing code. If I flash then reboot the board, it runs 100% reliably. I was told their engineering team seems to be looking into it though.

Hi Michael, have you resolved this problem? I am experiencing the same error while running the wifi scan sample on my nrf7002dk. Thanks!

Hi,

Which NCS version do you use?

Could you please specify the changes which you have made to the wi-fi scan sample?

Could you specify how often does this error appear?

Best regards,
Dejan
