Unable to connect in AP mode #749

Closed Wolfensteijn closed 2 years ago

Wolfensteijn commented 2 years ago

I am trying to get new Wemos D1 mini working, but I am unable to connect to the AP config of Wifimanager. The flashing has worked fine (tried several versions) and I can see the LED blinking rapidly while the serial monitor shows that the access point configuration is configured using the default ssid and password.

But I tried connecting from two Android devices and three Windows devices, and none of them can connect. Windows just tells me: "Can't connect to the network" and Android just tries to connect a couple of times and then it just fails.

I have no idea why it is failing, so I am kinda stumped on how to continue.

After getting some rest and some other perspectives using Twitter and IRC I managed to test a bit more.

Flashed the correct .bin to a NodeMCU, and that one worked as expected. Managed to restore my configuration to the nodemcu and connected nRF24L01+, everything is working again as it should.

Managed to test a fresh flesh to a different Wemos D1, and that one also worked as expected.

So my conclusion is that this one Wemos D1 board has wifi issues. So I will be replacing it.
