Td, I don't use p2p in my setup in Espeasy. Only serial,systeminfo and ping device and MQTT controller active to check the connection. Attached is part of a discussion on snbforum about multicast and IGMP-snooping in connection to ASUS routers. Hence the switching off of IGMP..... Hope you can make ...

to clearify

I disable it in the ASUS-Mesh (RT-AX92U) router.

Rini52

" But if I do understand your posts correctly, you still need to disable IGMP snooping on your network device(s) in order to keep ESPEasy connected, even when running the latest ESP8266 core code?"

yes correct, IGMP-snooping needs to disabled to connect to my central ASUS router.

TD Thanks for your reply. However; -> A few tricks to get Asus AP's working with ESPEasy: - Disable "Band Steering" in the access point. - Set ESPeasy to only allow using 802.11g or b. (tools->Advanded page: "Force WiFi B/G") - Check the checkbox "Enable SDK WiFi Auto Reconn...

Hi ath "If you're not into software development, why are you trying to switch to Arduino 3.1.2 framework? If there where pressing reasons to do so, it would have been done already... Biggest disadvantage of the 3.x line is that it has a bigger flash-footprint, leaving less room for plugins and ...

Rini52

TD, The reason was i ended up with disconnecting boards while using ASUS mesh routers and connected to the central unit. So I hoped that a new core would help to achieve a stable connection. I found out that I needed to remove the IMGB setting (multi to uni broadcast) on the ASUS router to keep it c...

Rini52

Dear I tried to follow that indeed. But had to go to a steep git,vscode, and platformio learning curve , not to mention EspEasy itself. If you'r a ms guru oke, I guess your familiar with all the particulars. However I wanted to include the core 3.1.2 and the only way for me was to find out how the y...

Rini52

Indeed in two libraries the IRAM_ATTR were (re)defined in the 3.1.2 core. 1) ESPEasySoftwareSerial.cpp 2) GPIO_Direct_Access.cpp Just commenting them out like below, did the trick. #ifndef CORE_POST_3_0_0 // #define ICACHE_RAM_ATTR __attribute__((noinline, section("\".iram.text." __FI...

Td, Below the plotform.local.txt file I created in hardware for the arduino-ide. Yes I just went to the newest Arduino_ide-1 version: 1.8.19. Will try the 1.18.15 I have still laying around... ---> compiler.minsize= compiler.c.extra_flags=-DUSE_CUSTOM_H -DPUYA_SUPPORT=0 -DCONFIG_FREERTOS_ASSERT_DISA...

Hi TD, In the mean time I went back to arduino-ide for the 0230509 branch. I found the following problems with 3 includes in the src directory... C018.Config.h C018_data_struct.h P025.data_struct.ccp all had their relative path wrong. You have to change #include /src to-> #include ../../src Also had...

Rini52

Hi, After long time I had disconnects again using my Asus AX92U router. It only happened when it was connected to the main mesh hub. The other were okay, but maybe because they had no competition from the others. However I switched off the smart connect for the 2,4GHz band and most importendly I swi...

Rini52

Don't know how I got it. Uninstalled the Pio in vscode and reinstalled it. You get the build in version 6.1.7rc1 ! . Just don't know how to get the current version 6.1.6 as the build in core. But unchecking the use of the builtin will automatically use the system default of 6.1.6 .

Rini52

TD, The build script worked okay , but it took a long time since it was building all the esp8266 versions. A small modification in the grep part help me to select the one i wanted to build. However I also found out that my platformio version was already on 6.1.7 putting it back to 6.1.6 resolved the...

Rini52

Thanks, Running the ¨build_ESPeasy.sh" script in the tool directory indeed build the ¨normal_ESP8266" without any problem. So I will flash it and assume it will work okay. Followed the instructions in the platformio and assumed it would build correctly. Did not realize I had to go to the t...

Rini52

Hi Help with build new falsh from default new ESPEasy.git . I did a fresh fork from the latest release and got the error TypeError: can only concatenate deque (not "list") to deque: Running vscode/platformio on unbuntu Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS (fully updated). Other 'non' ESPEasy vscode/pio buil...

Rini52

TD thanks,

I think I will go for option 2 (via rules) . Indeed I did unixday*64600 + unix_sec in the export field of the device ,which is send by mqtt. There apparently you use a 32bit float.
I will test it next week.

Regards
Rini

Rini52

TD,

Sorry i was to quick. It turns out , that producing the same problem . after six intervals its updated. May be you use a 32bit in the export of the mqtt?

Regards

Rini52

Td

Spot on! I overlooked this button. I had a look in the documentation(https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/inde ... _Variables) and there only the unixtime was mentioned.
Thanks a lot . it solved indeed my problem.

Regard, Have a nice weekend

Rini52

all, The system variable %unixtime% is truncated when exported by the 'Home Assistant (openHAB) MQTT' controller in the Pulse_counter device. I assume that this is caused by the fact somewhere intermediate the value is stored in a 32bit IEEE floating point variable. These 32bit variables can handle ...

Rini52

Found the solution...

The default seting in the serial-server is i2c serial. Change it to HW Serial0. Then it communicates correctly.
see attached screen dump.

Rini52

hi gents Heb ook van alles geprobeerd. De serial server connect met Domoticz/Putty en je krijgt te zien dat de ser2net is geconnect (op de log van de esp8266). Daarna is het over en uit met de pret. Domoticz disconnect omdat hij niets krijgt en met putty kun je niets verzenden. Dus lijkt het erop da...

Rini52

Correct. I used the standard setup for the build.

Rini52

TD Back in august I build a custom build for the Esp-easy. It now runs for 129 days with more than 308 reconnects. So in the end it turned out to work as a very reliable build for the mesh Asus router. see build below. Regards Rini ---> ESP Easy Mega: MyESP_Easy ⌂Main <http://192.168.50.7/>⚙Config <...

Rini52

Can you be a bit more specific about your WiFi setup? For example, are you using hidden SSID? Is your WiFi configured to be a WiFi mesh? Do you have lots of hidden SSID access points in your area (easiest to see on the /setup page or when performing a WiFi scan) What configuration do you use in ESP...

Rini52

Td, Thanks for your "tool" tip. I overlooked that one. In the mean time I have the vscode working for platformio.(had to remove some conflicts in my linux setup). I must admit that the compilation is a lot faster then with Arduino-ide. The custom.h file is also working. I see that you are ...

Rini52

Ton & TD I installed atom/platformio and after a lot of warnings and error messages it uploaded the code and preserved the rules on the esp8266. It is running the custom build by leaving the Custom.h file (from Arduino) in the clone directory. After 45+ years going from assembler-code/pdo/vax/od...

Rini52

Td I did follow your WIKI for Arduino. No extra flags are mentioned, or maybe I missed something? Anyway the home build code is running okay with the above mentioned adjustments. Platformio is jet another tool to learn. I went through numerous tools/platforms in my life, mainly Linux based. For the ...

Rini52

TD Today i copied the new mega-20210802 github code to my local arduine-ide settings and recompiled the code. After two compile error corrections Its running okay. Many thanks for the WIFI stabilization and the "MQTT quote" correction from Ton. below my input. Don't how how to get it in th...

Rini52

TD I started with this "Arduino" boards about a month ago to see what I can do with it. I needed a sensor with an esp to transmit data to my Domoticz server. Therefore I use the Arduino-IDE for compiling and flashing to the ESP8266 boards. It works okay and you separate setups(versions) wi...

Rini52

ton After a crash session in the use of git , I managed to get your version 3706 in my Arduino-IDE . And hooray I can confirm that the single entry get the quotes. Also with two svalues the quotes are there. So problem solved. :D . Unfortunately TD's Wifi-fix (3705?) is not included in yours 3706. S...

Rini52

arh I test the JSON bool option no change. As you predicted. I think I made a typo and have already 3707 in my local branch. To me this git stuff is like magic. You pull and pull and you never know which one you have.. If I do clone http:lets.... which one do I get? I have a desktop gui and it says ...

Rini52

Arth

I pulled the 3705 branch of the git. I hope this include your update (atleast files were changed when I checked. Compiled it with core 3.0.1 in Arduino-IDE and the result was negative.
Still the same problem, no quotes when a single value is requested in de Domoticz MqTT output

.

Rini

Rini52

TD I loaded pulled the 3705 branch from the git and put the libs etc in to the Arduino-IDE and compiled it with Arduino. One warning for "L-Cristals" encounterd. I don't use it and I used core 3.0.1. Perhaps related? All went oke. Rebooting and switching. Indeed you get an error message ab...

Rini52

TD I tested your newest build ESP_Easy_mega_20210615_energy_ESP8266_4M1M and my own build with core 3.0.1 (both based on 20114-mega). In both cases the periodic wifi scan was switched off and the new option "do not start AP" was switched on. The results sofar are great. No sudden disconnec...

Rini52

The same problem occurs for the ping device. This device only sends out one value and Domoticz can't handle this mtqq payload. This happens when using 20114 -mega build and also on the newly TD generated "ESP_Easy_mega_20210615_energy_ESP8266_4M1M" build. The previous (20210503) was okay. ...

Rini52

When the pulse counter is set to output only one value (delta option), the svalue message is missing the quotes. This is interpreted by Domoticz as invalid message. Mqtt-output: 1) For one (delta) svalue: {"idx":37,"RSSI":8,"nvalue":0,"svalue":2800.00} 2) For ...

Rini52

Td Thanks for sharing. I also did set the "do not start AP" setting. As you suggested. My wifi signals are way higher compared to sgtester but It seems to work ok now ... My settings are below: Force WiFi B/G: true Restart WiFi Lost Conn: true Force WiFi No Sleep: true Periodical send Grat...

Rini52

Td I build a custom flash using the source form the git hub removed some sensors and controllers and used the ESP8266 board version 3.0.1 of Arduino-IDE. I put the Wifi to b/g only and reconnect on lost wifi connection. The biggest stability gain(no disconnects) came from removing the regular Wifi-s...

Rini52

TD thanks for your reply. I hope you found the real reason. Today i recompiled the ESPEasy mega from the git in Arduino-ide. Appart from a typo in one of the helper.ccp files it went okay. (i was surprised since my knowledge of this stuff is low). I used the newest esp8266 community (3.0.1) library ...

Rini52

TD The connection to the mAP lite worked okay over the past few days. I had the fall back to the (mesh) ASUS router and once connected to it there is no way to get it back to the Map bridge. Only power cycling and wait for 10mins and than the mAp is selected again. So one SSID (no mesh) is the solut...

Rini52

Td I received the Mikro mAP lite router. Very nice little thing!. I set it in brigde mode using thsi youtube channel : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2RTfaN5KYk. You can run the RouterOS Winbox (exe) in Wine and it worked in one go. So I can start experimenting with the ESP's connection..... Thanks.

Rini52

Just to play safe I ordered the mAP lite. Looks like a nice toy....

Rini52

Thanks for the suggestions. Currently I have a running ESPEasy (latest ESP_Easy_mega_20210503_energy_ESP8266_4M1M) after I first flashed the arduino(2.5.2) and flash it over with the ESPEasy firmware. In addition I blocked the mac address on the 5GHZ WiFi radios and set the ESP8266 on a static IP ad...

Rini52

this is really an awkward problem. The only way to get a esp8266 working (from my sketchbook in arduino ) with this ASUS (AX92U) router is going back to esp8266 community version 2.5.2 !!!!!! This means i have to build ESPEasy myself with this library I assume. My experience with building is next to...

Rini52

No luck. The ESP8266 (nodemcu) modules disconnecte4d after 1.5 days. They were not able to reconnect. Only power recycling in combination of switching the wmm settings seems to allow the ESPs to reconnect to wifi. I also found out that it connected to the weakest (-68 db) ASUS AP (RT-AX92U). The str...

Rini52

I just found out that also the tasmota setup has problems with my ASUS router (RT-AX92U). And I wondered if this has to do with the wifi settings of this mesh router. I found a google on sonof sound setups (they use esp8266) and they suggested to switch off the QoS services. I switched it on (becaus...

Rini52

I also was struggling with wifi conection the last two weeks. My mesh setup with 3 aps mestup the espeasy connections. Numours reflashes and erase flashes were needed to get my esp8266 reconnected only to find out that after a power cut the whole thing need to be repeated to get the strongest AP. I ...
