Re: Status on Wi-Fi connectivity?
Think I found the issue. Had 12 publish commands executed when MQTT Broker was connected. All 12 commands were also used in MQTT imports on the same module. In the logs I could see low memory warnings and the module has 100% load. NTP was not set, Wi-Fi associated to a "wrong" AP, and I co...

Re: Status on Wi-Fi connectivity?
Well it’s the client who decides to roam, not the infrastructure. I know what Cisco, Aruba and others have some optional mechanisms to try and bump the client to another AP. But none of these are used on UniFi AFAIK. Normally a roaming treshold is used (e.g. 65dB for VoWiFi), if the signal strength ...

Status on Wi-Fi connectivity?
Hi,
Just wondering what the status is on this topic? Running ESP_Easy_mega_20220809 on a Original Wemos D1, but the module keeps it connecting to an AP (Ubiquity) further away than the one sitting 2m from it, resulting in -84dB and unstable function.

Sure, thanks for your support. Right now it seems to work, but I'll post all rules if I end up in it again.
I also experienced the situation where all 4 rule pages, only showed the first page. I think that it's wise to wipe all rules, reboot and paste again if a similar situation occurs again.
