[BUG] Connection Timed Out - Connecting to Lay-Z-Spa AP After Flash

[mossc001]

Describe the bug After erasing the flash of a v4.3.1 device and uploading both the system and program via VS Code for v4.4.1, it's very slow to connect to the Lay-Z-Spa AP, then once connected via 192.168.4.1, you get connection timed out.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

1. General > Full Clean
2. Platform > Erase Flash
3. General > Build
4. General > Upload
5. Platform > Build Filesystem Image (v4.4.1)
6. Platform > Upload Filesystem Image
7. Connect to Lay-Z-Spa AP with a device
8. Go to 192.168.4.1; receives "Connection Timed Out"

Expected behaviour You would expect to hit the WiFi configuration manager.

Hardware (please complete the following information):

• ESP8266 NodeMCU V3 Micro USB

Additional context If I clean/erase and go back to v4.3.1, the speed of connection is rapid and the WiFi Manager connects instantly.

Yes, you are entering the wrong adress.

An Access Point is created called "Lay-Z-Spa Module". Look for a new Wi-Fi hot spot on your phone. When connecting to that SSID you need to enter the password layzspam0dule. Then open a browser and enter address http://192.168.4.2/wifi.html. Fill in your credentials and save. Wait a few seconds and restart the ESP.

@visualapproach , I was just about to reply with that :) I can now see the device has a router of 192.168.4.1 but to access the device, I now need to go to http://192.168.4.2/wifi.html. My mistake!

However, the speed of connection to the AP in the first place is over 10 seconds difference between v4.3.1 to v4.4.1. Very odd.

Easy mistake. A bit funny address maybe but it's more easy to remember than Shelly's ...33 ;)
