Let's Control It

Tebogo

Interssant, enige planning?

Ik heb nu een Arduino Uno R3, daarop past RFLink niet, zou graag m'n cc2500 i.c.m. m'n Livingcolors Gen.1 werkend krijgen.

Was helemaal blij met de veelbelovende rflink-site, totdat ik zag dat het alleen op een mega-baordje draait.

Ik wacht af

Strange, for me mega-20190227 does not work for me.
Last working build for me is 20190226. That why I suggested that.

Tebogo

Hi guys, I just flashed ESP_Easy_mega_20210615_normal_ESP8266_1M Still have the same error. Once connected to wifi, I get connection timeout on the Web UI and no ping. Before setting the Wifi config, I was able to go to both: http://192.168.4.1/tools http://192.168.4.1/advanced Odd, very odd. Perha...

Tebogo

Also, before setting-up your wifi, you can try to open a browser and open the tools or advanced page, http://192.168.4.1/tools of /advanced.

Tebogo

Looks like same results and issue as I mentioned here, viewtopic.php?f=6&t=8575#p52931
Try this build, ESPEasy_mega-20190226.
Than install ESPEasy_mega-20190227
If ESPEasy_mega-20190226 works and ESPEasy_mega-20190227 not, it likely the same issue..

How is it powered?
Via USB, or do you supply your own voltage? On which pins?

Via the USB port, with a iPad 5.2V 2.5A adapter

Tebogo

Fact is that those later boards (also the Lolin D1 mini you linked) do have a voltage regulator which is far less powerful compared to the original (original as in "rev1") Wemos D1 mini boards. As you can see in the image, the voltage regulator is this 5-pins SOT-23 chip next to the pin l...

Just to be sure... have you tested with reduced WiFi TX power? Yes, did that in steps of -2.5 till 0. No success: Can you make a better close-up of the one that doesn't work?

Nothing special, see pictures:

Will have a look at the logs in a minute, but I wonder if the iPad was able to connect before to the ESPEasy AP.

I know, it's a strange thing, but I'm not the first who already experienced this. In this Topic, you also already worked on it. I think we need a bit more info. How often does this occur?

Aonther thing to try (more credible than the really odd suggestion on Reddit of using a complete nonsense subnet) Can you give the command wifidisconnect after it has made a connection?

Just to be sure about the settings. What settings do you use? I don't have any setting, when I start. As you saw in earlier posts my flashing was always with a total erase.

You don't need to reflash it, you can also turn on AP via the serial command or just erase the wifi credentials via the serial command. If you set the wifissid to "ssid" it will be considered as non-existing and then start the AP mode automatically. Thanks, that a lot easier!! Now on 5 dB...
