Set Ping Timeout?

[Bernhard17]

First of all, thank you for the fork of WebSerialLite library. Great improvement. But it is possible to set the ping timeout?

demo.ino:

[WebSerial] Connecting... [WebSerial] Connected... IP address: 192.168.5.162 Millis=4570674 Free heap=[198268] IP address: 192.168.5.162 Millis=4586684 Free heap=[197820] IP address: 192.168.5.162 Millis=4588686 Free heap=[198620] IP address: 192.168.5.162 Millis=4590689 Free heap=[198332] IP address: 192.168.5.162 Millis=4592689 Free heap=[197336] IP address: [WebSerial] Ping timeout. [WebSerial] Connecting... [WebSerial] Connected... IP address: 192.168.5.162 Millis=4600690 Free heap=[197144] IP address: 192.168.5.162 Millis=4602691 Free heap=[197728] IP address: 192.168.5.162 Millis=4604693 Free heap=[196688] IP address: 192.168.5.162 Millis=4606693 Free heap=[196908] IP address: [WebSerial] Ping timeout. [WebSerial] Connecting... [WebSerial] Connected...

Then the connection is lost.

It's a weak connection, but it works. It seems that the timeout is too short. It would be nice if you could set the timeout or switch it off completely.

Hi,

There is no way atm to customise this timeout: the ping is done to detect a connection failure asap in order to have the UI reconnect asap also. For exemple changing that would break the speed of the reconnect after an ESP restart.

What I don't get is why the connection is lost. The code is made in order to retry always until it can connect.

It never recovers ?
