Fallback SSID
device: WeMos D1 mini
espeasy: mega-20181231
macOS 10.13.6
Arduino IDE 1.8.8
I have set the D1 mini with a primary SSID (helmsdeep) and a fallback SSID (Mines of Moria). When I boot the device and watch the serial monitor in the Arduino IDE and I see:
INIT : Booting version: mega-20181231 (ESP82xx Core 2_4_2, NONOS SDK 2.2.1(cfd48f3), LWIP: 2.0.3 PUYA support)

4355 : WIFI : Disconnected! Reason: '(201) No AP found' Connected for 2865 ms
And nothing else ever shows. For two days I've been fignting with this trying to figure out why it wouldn't connect with the fallback SSID. I've rebooted, reflashed the D1 mini (don't ask how many times) and nothing more shows on the Arduino log.
Today I finally discovered how to use the commands in the arduino IDE and when I did a 'Status' low and behold, I was connected to the fallback SSID.
My question is: Why doesn't the serial monoter of the IDE show the connection to the fallback SSID?

Ok, so now I see it reconnection, but since it was showing me infromation when it was set to 'None' don't you think that it shoud show the connection to the Fallack SSID?

Re: Fallback SSID
Right from start the unit will output to serial but if set to "blank" it will stop after a while (about 5 seconds into the boot). But we will change this to output until a proper connection is made.

That will be great and maybe save someone eles from pulling their hair out like I did

Re: Fallback SSID
Is there any way to mark this 'solved'? I was going to change the topic to 'Fallback SSID [solved] but can't seem to find a way to do it.
Re: Fallback SSID
Let me ask you this: Is there a way to define an IP address for the device when the base SSID address might be different.
For example, say I want the device to have a fixed IP nnn.nnn.nnn.19 but my primary SSID hands out 10.0.0.nnn address and my fallback SSID hands back IP of 192.168.1.nnn? I was wondering if it could be done in rules.
Up to now, I've been assinging devices their IP address's and that has worked fine on my own network - but trying to get this setup for my son's network is giving me a bit of a challenge.
Any thoughts?

Re: Fallback SSID
That would require some mind set to it. I will need to think a bit. Totally understand the use though!

Re: Fallback SSID
You can do so at the router level (as a quick way around it).dampa wrote: ↑04 Jan 2019, 12:58 Let me ask you this: Is there a way to define an IP address for the device when the base SSID address might be different.

Set a DHCP to MAC addy so each router will DHCP a "known-static" IP to the ESP, from within it's own pool.

Re: Fallback SSID
yeah, I know I can do at the router, and being tech savy I can do it, but I don't want to have to explain to my son, over the phone how to do it on his router or anyone else if I give one to someone else. I also know that the device will work eithor place because it will be 'given' an IP address, but since I can specify the IP and gateway for the primary SSID, I'd like to be able to do it for the fallback one too.
If I could do it in rules, that would be great too, but while you can use a command to change the IP, you can't change the gateway so if you reboot, you're back to the address the router gives you.

I'll give that a try, but it's not in the list at https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/inde ... _Reference
