Hi,
I’ve been having trouble with my spark core, making it quite unreliable.
First problem is that it keeps going online/offline:

On the device itself, the LED rapidly blinks from time to time, instead of just pulsing.
it seems to reliably push events, however reading variables/calling functions/flashing is a different matter -
I usually get timeouts on the first try, and then 2nd or third succeed. With flashing sometimes I don’t succeed at all, and had to do factory reset to be able to flash it.

C:\svn\ReberHisa\reber>particle get core temp
Error: Timed out.
I’ve done the cc3000 update, the deep update, trying firmware with different firmware versions, but I haven’t noticed any difference.
The .ino file I am using is here https://gist.github.com/clarity99/aefa1b25651411083785, perhaps there’s an issue there?
I’ve tried with a different power supply as well, the current one is 1A, which should be enough, I hope?
I haven’t tried replacing the wifi router though. The photon that is on the same network doesn’t have these problems though. It’s a 802.11bg network on an old Asus wl-500g router running openwrt.
Any help is much appreciated…
