MPLAB ICE 4 In-Circuit Emulator User's Guide

3.2.2.1 Wi-Fi Access Point (WiFi-AP)

Wi-Fi Access Point (WiFi-AP) mode allows the emulator to create its own network (like a router) and have other devices (e.g., a laptop) connect to it. Use this mode to access the emulator and target via a PC within the range of the Wi-Fi signal.

MPLAB ICE 4 comes up with a preset fixed SSID and Password:

SSID: "ICE4_MTIxxxxxxxxx" (where xxxxxxxxx is your tool unique serial number)
password: "microchip"

Note: When MPLAB ICE 4 is connected in WiFi-AP mode, computers with Windows OS may disconnect from other Wi-Fi connections.
