Thank you everyone, that was it (too long wires). So anyone reading this, your device should consume +-250ma after 30 sec or so and goes back to +-170ma. If you have the amber led turning off for 1 sec, that is because the omega is rebooting .

It would be nice to specify this information in this page:

Even in the pictures it looks like you are using long & thin wires...
Cheers

Why not get a wall charger from your phone and plug in the device. SOME USB ports (even on Macs) do not have enough power to power the device.
I am using a digital control dc power supply (rated at 30V 5A) so I guess it can output a clean 3.3V at 2A no problem.
From what I can observe:
When booting, the amber led is on for 1 minute, after that it turn off for 1 sec every 20 sec...

@patrick-seb Look at the output on the serial-port to see what's going on.
Ok will eventually do, but can you confirm that normally you only need to give 3.3V / 2A and you should see Omega-XXXX in your wifi manager - because the board is by default an access point (I don't see where bonjour is involved in this, but anyway I am testing on a mac)?
@Costas-Costas said in Access point not found:
As per docs, do you have bonjour?
Yes I am using a Mac. The problem is that I don't see the Omage-XXXX in my wifi (the Access Point is not fired up?). By the way, my power supply is set to 3.3V at 2A.
What is going on?
Hi all,
I am feeding a clean 3.3V and it consume about 175ma, the amber led doesn't blink but is lighted up. Now waiting for 2min, I still don't see Onion-(Last4CharOfMacAdress).
Do I have a defective device?
EDIT:
The amber led, is turning off for 1sec each 20sec!
