HTTP request failed when trying to make a GET

[bistory]

Expected behavior

GET requests from HTTP module worked.

Actual behavior

Before v1.5.4, GET requests were working as expected. I downloaded a new firmware and HTTP is not working anymore.

Test code

-- Your Wifi connection data
local SSID = "TEST"
local SSID_PASSWORD = "PASSWORD"

-- If connection is successful, read DHT and post
wifi.eventmon.register(wifi.eventmon.STA_GOT_IP, function(T)
    print("Config done, IP is " .. T.IP)

    http.get(string.format("http://www.google.com"), nil, function(code, data)
        if (code < 0) then
            print("HTTP request failed")
        else
            print(code, data)
        end
    end)
end)
