CCS/CC3220SF-LAUNCHXL: Connecting to AP of "Portable + Wi-Fi" Example

Part Number: CC3220SF-LAUNCHXL

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I am working on the "Portable + Wi-Fi" example and everything is compiling correctly. However, when using Tera Term to connect to the device (Task 8, Step 1) I do not seem to be correctly initializing the server. In Step 2, I need to type "simplelink-" and then the last 6 digits of my Mac Address, but the terminal is not accepting any input from my keyboard. I've reset the device repeatedly, but keep getting the text in the image below.

    Hi Collin,

    The Simplelink device starts working as an Access Point. The terminal message you see means that it has started working succesfully.
    You use the terminal in this example just as debug tool (output) and don't need to enter anything.

    Now, you need to connect to it from your phone (or Laptop). The Network you need to look for is "simplelink-[6 MAC digits].
    (if you open the phone Setting/Wifi you should find such network and connect to it.
    After you are connected, open the mobile phone (or laptop) browser and use the given URL. ("mysimplelink.net" is broadcast as DNS message by the CC3220 and allows the browser to find its IP, "portable.html" is the page you just installed).

    br,
