Bug when changing wifi data

[hackintoshlover]

It seems to me that there is a bug when changing wifi. I moved my hardware to another location (another wifi), I got the page 192.168.4.1 and I was able to configure the new wifi. It worked. When I came home with it, I wanted to put the old wifi back on. The page 192.168.4.1 is there, I was able to choose my wifi, the connection is made but when I reboot it still tries to connect to the previous wifi. Weird thing:

When scanning the previous wifi appears in the list even though it is not present where I am staying. The backup access point is still visible when connected to my home network and both are accessible. I was able to unblock it by doing "wifi_erase_config -la" in the console.

In the logs, the only abnormal thing I see is:

E (97215) network: network manager Unhandled Event NETWORK_WIFI_CONFIGURING_ACTIVE_STATE(WIFI_CONFIGURING_STATE) [EN_CONNECTED] E (99285) network: network manager Unhandled Event NETWORK_WIFI_CONFIGURING_ACTIVE_STATE(WIFI_CONFIGURING_STATE) [EN_GOT_IP]

I have the impression that it cannot overwrite old wifi data. Using ESP32A1S audio board. esp-web-tools-logs.txt

FYI, I spend the little spare time I have on the next generation/refactored platform for the project so I might not have a chance to get to this in a while. In the new platform, one of the main requirements for wifi will be multi access points configuration.

I will wait for the same. Till then i will try not to move the device from one network to the other. Also eagerly waiting for line-in. Thanks.

Line in is on the horizon, but will take some time given the effort needed for the refactoring. Embedded development is full of surprises and this is no exception.

I intend to bake multiple WiFi credentials from the beginning here.

That is totally fine with me. I'll be waiting eagerly. Since this project simplifies everything for me. Earlier i was using raspberry pi connected to my speaker whose memory card would go corrupt. With your project it's just simple, cheap, easy and efficient. And for me till date it has not failed and no sound lag when using multiple of these devices with LMS.

I have also problems after changing wifi credetials. the first change (from home wifi to mobile hotspot worked as it should. when trying to revert to home wifi, using esp32 hotspot 192.168.4.1 and so on, i got this:

Workaround used: use the hotspot of the esp32 and get into recovery mode (so the system wont restart over and over) AND I think this makes the difference, that the system will keep the new wifi credentials. then connect to the desired network.

-> no error messages in console, working again :)
