Hi @mailmarcus,
let's organize a small debuugging session via phone or signal?
The ESP stores all configurations in a file system. It seems that after you first flashed and configured it with esphome, somehow this is not compatible with SPIDR.
SPIDR also checks during boot, if it can read the config from the flash filesystem. If that fails, it will use precompiled defaults.
I would suggest, we first get a clean flashing procedure done (alsi including wiping the config data) and then see if this special issue still exists.
Please contact me via spidr ähtt marxram DoT de (PS: Speaking German is fine ;-)
Hi Roland, I have moved parts of my previous issue report to a different thread, to hopefully cleaning up communication.
device: Heltec Wifi_Kit_32_V3.1
After not being able to flash
spidr_1.1.ino.heltec_wifi_kit32_V3.bin
directly with Tasmotizer or Chrome and web.esphome.io, I tried to "PREPARE FOR FIRST USE" via Chrome and https://web.esphome.io/. This ended with "Configuration installed!".I then logged into the WLAN hotspot
esphome-web-564f94
and uploaded thespidr_1.1.ino.heltec_wifi_kit32_V3.bin
OTA.Then the device rebooted and its display showed the SPIDR information, also showing the WIFI SSID: SPIDR-net Password: SPIDR-pass but the available WLAN hotspot was "ESP_564F94" (and not SPIDR-net).
The log dowloaded via web.esphome.io was:
In an attempt to log into the console to manually change the WLAN credentials, I opened a guest WIFI hotspot with SSID: YOUR-HOME-WIFI and WiFi Key: YOUR-WIFI-PASSKEY, and the device obtained an IP from my guest WLAN. (I was however unable to access the device's IP in my guest network, probably a safety feature of my router). The log however shows successful joining of my guest WIFI:
The aforementioned WLAN hotspot "ESP_564F94" was still showing up. Should this not be deactivated when the device enters a home network?
Anyway, I signed into this open WLAN and could open the SPIDR config (http://192.168.4.1/config). There, I changed the config to the following (with my correct WLAN settings!) and hit update.
Edit: My WLAN key is just 16 numbers, no special characters. My SSID are just 3 letters/numbers, not very complex.
Then the device's display went dark but it did not sign into my home WLAN but instead used my guest WLAN again. The log shows:
Any suggestions? Big thanks in advance, Marcus
