keep losing WiFI and ask to reconnect to hotspot #239

Closed bertybassett closed 2 years ago

bertybassett commented 2 years ago

OK so I have a vvvvv strong WiFi from my ubiquiti dream machine router and the D1 mini is less than 2 meters away from said router however my D1 mini keeps losing WiFi and then asking to reconnect to the clock hotspot. Is a setting I can tweak to help prevent this?

BTW I send donation yesterday, its not much but every little helps.

When you view the web interface down at the bottom of the screen does it show the WiFi signal strength as a percentage? How long is the IP lease from your DHCP server. I have never experienced what you are describing. I run the D1 mini all over my house and some even in my back yard and they are always connected. Check some of your router settings. Especially on the 2.4Ghz network. Thanks for the donation!

Try running it a little further from the router. See if that keeps happening if you give it a little distance.

DHCP was set to 15 minutes I've changed it to 10 hours let see if that improve it.

signal on the initial wifi setup page is 92%

Tried two different D1 minis same models however different manufactures and the second one is way more sensitive.

Yes I've used D1 mini everyone in the past but not at this new house with my new Ubiquiti router.
