Reboot in automesh mode #402

Open jsponz opened 4 years ago

jsponz commented 4 years ago

I am using your code to have a repeater in my home.

I have activated the automesh, but I am not sure if I have to activated it. I just want to have a repeater.

The issue is that I have between 5 and 7 nodes connected to the repeater, but after some hours , it reboots automatically.

Two questions:

1) Do I need to activate automesh? 2) Any idea of the reason for the auto reboot?

If there are no nodes connected, there is no auto reboot.

Short: no, no.

Longer: you can configure the repeaters manually, you can even use the same SSID for AP and STA. I don't know, why it reboots, it is not supposed to. Maybe memory shortage or power issues.
