initiate reboot / check connection #24

Hi,

I've build two ESP8266 - Arduino pro mini devices. Both identical, running the same code.

One runs just fine. The other runs just fine, but then stops responding after a day or two, until i restart it.

Is there a way for the arduino to check the connection to the wifi / connection to the ESP... and if it is faulty restart the ESP, then the arudino... ?

You can add something in the loop and if the wifi isn't up or you don't get a topic message in a specific timeframe then reboot.

yes, you can call boolean ESP::ready() for test connection between esp8266 and arduino. if timeout, you can reset by CH pin

Thanks I will try that.
