RTOS/BOOSTXL-CC3120MOD: Issue running sample project httpgetCC3100_EK_TM4C1294XL_TI

Part Number: BOOSTXL-CC3120MOD
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC3120MOD, CC3100

Tool/software: TI-RTOS

The setup I currently have is that I have an EK_TM4C1294XL board and connected to BoosterPack1 I have BOOSTXL-CC3120MOD. 

My goal, for now, is to just perform a simple GET request to an arbitrary server to check compatibility and to test this out I am using the httpgetCC3100_EK_TM4C1294XL_TI sample project from CSS resource explorer.

The issue I have is that I can't start the device. when I first call sl_Start the mode that I get back is ROLE_STA_ERR.  

void setStationMode(void) {
int mode;
int response;
unsigned char param;

mode = sl_Start(NULL, NULL,NULL);
if (mode < 0) {
System_abort("Could not initialize SimpleLink Wi-Fi");
}

...

I have already done the AP configuration and I can ping the CC3120MOD IP address so it is on the network. Is this an issue with compatibility? or am I just missing something else here?
