Hostname in station mode #228

Open brjhaverkamp opened 3 weeks ago

brjhaverkamp commented 3 weeks ago

Hi, Just received the wican and am in the process of setting it up. One small thing I noticed already is that when I set it up in station mode, it registers via dhcp to my router as "espressif". It would be nicer if it proudly used its own hostname wican. I assume this is a parameter in the networking part.

It is no blocker in any way, access still works and all. Its just that it now has a bit cryptic name that I will surely forget when I look through my connected devices in a year or so.

Regards,

Bert

@brjhaverkamp Thanks for the suggestion. I think there is a way to change it to wican.

abstractionnl commented 3 weeks ago

Could you change it to wican-{deviceid} ?, I have two of them

Has this to be hard coded? Should´nt it be better to have it configurable?

brjhaverkamp commented 3 weeks ago

That would be even nicer, of course:-)
