I powered down the WLAN Access Point for several hours today.
When i powered it up again, my ESPEasy Nodes are not connecting automatically.
Is that the intention?
I assumed, that the nodes would reconnect automatically?

Re: WLAN reconnect fails after longer power down of WLAN-AP
I think it's by design.
But not very convenient, if there is an outage (wifi and/or Domoticz in my case) and the error count goes beyond 30 the ESP turns to Access point if I understand correctly
I have to make a tour round the house to switch the esp off and on again to start the normal WiFi connection.

Re: WLAN reconnect fails after longer power down of WLAN-AP
Ok, so that's no good solution in my oppinion.
I'd prefer a solution like this:
1) After 30 failed connection retries - change to AP mode
2) If in AP mode and if there is no client connected for more than 1 minute, change back to client mode and try to connect to WLAN AP
3) goto 1
