[chinesejacklee]

Hi there, my first comment, great work! how do I set the esp32 so it can be connected with my local WIFI pls? I can't find anything in the user manual talks about it. I tried to change the wifi to the 'station mode', but I am now stuck and can not connect with the the http://192.168.4.1/ anymore. Can anyone help pls?

This is NOT a BUG, but works a designed. Let me explain....

When ESP is connected in your home network, it receives a new IP-address from your router/modem.

Did you had a look at the logging... via Console that is available in 🗲ESP-launchpad🗲.

• First press Connect and select right Com-port.
• Than select Console
• You might have to press Reset Device and Confirm in that screen, to restart ESP
• read logging in Console-screen

There you can see under what (new) ip-adress the ESP is connected in your home-network

• Look for GREEN LINE with esp_netif_handlers: sta ip: or
• GREEN LINE with HW/WIFI: got ip:

You can also have a look in your router-modem.

p.s.

• You can always reprogram the ESP, and try again

• Double check always Home SSID and Password
