Failed to Connect with ESP8266 Wemos D1 mini

[katze]

Hi, I am experiencing random connection problems between a Wemos D1 mini (Esp8266) and Google Home. Most of time i've get this error : "Failed to Connect to 192.168.1.11:8009."

I've tried connecting with device name or ip, sending wav or TTS but it does not change anything. I'm using the last version of ESP8266 (2.4.2) installed using Arduino IDE Boards Manager

Do you have any advice ?

The problem doesn't occur everytime? I haven't experienced the problem.

Is the ip address of Google home "192.168.1.11"? Please check Google Home and wifi AP in your home also if it is.

Do you have any information about this issue?

Hello, Sorry I was off for a few days. Notifications works about one in ten times. Other times I get the error : "Failed to Connect to 192.168.1.11:8009" after a long timeout. Maybe WiFiClientSecure is the cause, but i can't get logs.

192.168.1.11 is of course the ip of my Google Home Mini.

I got it work on both the Wemos D1 mini and Wemos D1 mini Pro

only works with the google nest hub and not my regular google nest mini

I use this

IPAddress ip(192, 168, 1, 205);

void connectToGH(){
  Serial.println("connecting to Google Home...");

  if (ghn.ip(ip, "en", 8009) != true) {                           // this use the IP address
    Serial.println(ghn.getLastError());
    return;
  }

  Serial.print("found Google Home(");
  Serial.print(ghn.getIPAddress());
  Serial.print(":");
  Serial.print(ghn.getPort());
  Serial.println(")");
}
