name of esp not dns name

[kroonen]

Hi

If I give the esp8266 the name, it should also be nice to have that also as dns/host name of the esp.

Now I get in my router esp_some part of mac address.

Is this possible to create?

Is this possible to have de name of the esp given in the web interface, as hostname. I found this somewhere for arduino with esp

wifi_station_set_hostname("foobar")

Hi folks,

i would really like to define the dhcp hostname for the easyesp.

If i have a lot of these one day, it is difficult to separate them all by just ESP_xxyyzz in my DHCP server interface.

I also found this wifi_station_set_hostname , but dont know where to implement it in the code. Do i have to include user_interface.h ?

Thank you !

Billy
