Omega2+ and ywrobot
-
Hi! My omega2+ just arrived last week but I didn't ordered an dock(of course). As waiting for one is boring because customs in my country takes about 3 months to clear the package I bought a YwRobot (http://www.petervis.com/Raspberry_PI/Breadboard_Power_Supply/YwRobot_Breadboard_Power_Supply.html) and a breadboard. I plug VIN and GROUND to the current lines and the omega2 LED turn on.
After about 18 seconds, the light turn off and that's it. No wifi, no blinking, nothing.Am I doing something wrong?

I believe your power supply is inadequate. See my comments in this thread:

@fossette Yes, I bought the ywrobot because it uses a ams1117, I thought it will work
-
@Mark-B thank you for your help, it sucks that doesn't work with my board. I will try shortening the dupont cables just in case because I can't return the ywrobot-

@Agustin-Valeriani As @fossette mentioned, please see our article on running the Omega with no Dock: https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/hardware-prep-no-dock.html
We've confirmed that setup work well with the Omega2. For best performance and the most functionality, we recommend using the Omega with a Dock!

Ok I got a ams1117, it outputs 3.3v and 800mhz but my omega is still not working.
The led turns on for about 20 seconds and the it turned off and nothing else happend.
Is it broken?

Nevermind, I moved a little the cables and started! so exited to try it!
Thank you all!
