connect to hidden ssid #18

Closed monty124 closed 3 years ago

monty124 commented 4 years ago

testing tiltbridge on a ESP32 OLED and I cannot seem to get it to connect to a hidden ssid wifi connection. In addition once i do connect it to a broadcast ssid, i cant connect directly using the ip displayed on the oled screen and on a power cycle nothing is retained, it goes back to the tiltbridgeap configure screen. are there any logs we can look at to try and debug?

There are not, unfortunately.

ok thanks for replying, should it hold the config on power cycling? any tips on where i can look to try and work out what is going on? i can see some refrences to serial output in the code but it does not look like much

I tested this creating a soft AP with a hidden SSID as follows:

#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#include <Arduino.h>

const char *ssid = "softap";
const char *password = "password";

void setup()
{
  WiFi.softAP(ssid, password, 1, 1); 
}

void loop() { ; }

I am unable to reproduce this issue. Can you provide additional information?

oh wow this was indeed a while ago! I couldn't get this working, i was trying to connect to a hidden ssid from the built in web interface but it would not save I ended up abandoning this as I could not get it to work, I'll close this comment and if i get a change to revisit and have issues again I will log an issue thanks for taking a look anyway.
