Ok

I tried to get it connected to my ap, but it states it cant find my ap. But with a wifiscan it can find my AP (Hans)

Steps to reproduce

Install the firmware and configure wifi

It happens all the time

System configuration

Hardware:
NodeMCU from wemos (4mbit)

ESP Easy version: ESP_Easy_mega-20181106_normal_ESP8266_4096

ESP Easy settings/screenshots:

Rules or log data

[Grovkillen]

Just to be sure, no trailing spaces in the name/setting?

[ymoona]

Nope. And I'm not sure about casing on the ap name. But I matched that as well.

I upgraded this node MCU from an older version, could it be that it is stuck on some old config? I already erased the flash and did a factory reset. Any thing else I can do?

[Grovkillen]

You did flash it with a 4MB blank bin file?

[ymoona]

Yes, also did that

[Grovkillen]

Other ESP Easy units, do they connect?

[ymoona]

Yes, but they are way older version.

[Grovkillen]

Any you haven't tried another unit with the a new version? Please do!

[svmac]

I have same issue. I've been trying to solve it for several days. It only happens with Wemos NodeMCU modules:

Wemos D1 mini and clone D1 mini modules work well.

I got that one pictured (at my office) I might be able to test it myself on Friday when I'm back.

[TD-er]

Can you give the information from the sysinfo page?
Just to check if there is some difference in the nodes.

[TD-er]

Oh and could you maybe try to set the wifi credentials using the (latest) version of @Grovkillen flash tool (included in the zip) and als try to set the IP settings to static. (in a second attempt)

[svmac]

I've just upgrade to mega-20181107 (file ESP_Easy_mega-20181107_normal_ESP8266_4096.bin) and set the wifi credentials using the (latest) version of @Grovkillen flash tool (included in the zip) and now it's working.

[Grovkillen]

So we can close this issue then? 👍

[svmac]

Yesterday I was testing mega-20181023 version that did not work and mega-20181022 version that did work. Now I'm going to test mega-20181106 version...

[svmac]

please, do not close it yet

[svmac]

Downgrade to mega-20181106 version via OTA ==> WiFi don't work

[svmac]

Flash ESP_Easy_mega-20181106_normal_ESP8266_4096.bin with ESP Easy Flasher ==> WiFi don't work

[Grovkillen]

So yesterdays release is misbehaving. What have changed between those two releases? Not much?

[TD-er]

I changed a lot of strings to reduce amount of space used.

[Grovkillen]

But you changed it to work?

[TD-er]

But you changed it to work?

Yesterday I only merged the commits regarding OTA updates
So it should mainly be string related.

I hope I did proper search/replace queries, but maybe something may have changed, regarding wifi setup.

[Grovkillen]

Today's release seems to work, yesterdays don't. Weird, build related perhaps.

[TD-er]

Ah, maybe I fixed something too in the process ;)
Sorry, those things may happen..

[svmac]

ESP_Easy_mega-20181107_normal_ESP8266_4096 flashed via OTA ==> WiFi works OK

[svmac]

So today's release seems to work, but no. I've compiled from sources in the zip file and WiFi doesn't work again.
I've flashed my compiled version on D1 mini and WiFi works OK.

[TD-er]

Have you tried to compile it twice before flashing? (assuming you're using PlatformIO)
And there seems to be a difference in alignment of data when building on Windows or Linux (according to threads on Tasmota/Espruna issues lists)

[svmac]

No, I haven't. I use PlatformIO with VS code on Windows 10.
OK, I'm going to compile twice and try it. I tell you.

[svmac]

@TD-er I 've runned task PlatformIO: Build (normal_ESP8266_4096) twice and get this log. Do you mean this?

Yes, sometimes the module needs couple of tries to connect to the AP after start/reboot. But after working fine.

I'll try this multiple AP thing on Tuesday.

[TD-er]

I will have a look to see if we can set the BSSID locked.
This has been discussed before.
Do you have multiple access points with the same SSID running?

[TD-er]

I just added a build flag to the common section in platformio.ini.
See this commit: 44a23fb

I will make a test build for this so we can test the effect on multiple nodes.

[TD-er]

I just made a test build with this flag active.

Can you test it?

[redskinhu]

Test build tested: NG
mega-20181124: OK (i saw the changelog, nothing has changed since 22)

I have couple of routers hanging around. Could you explain this multiple AP thing? I know the router side. How should i configure the ESPEasy? What is the fallback SSID? Same like the the primary? How can i force the ESPEasy to connect the weaker AP first? I can try it on Tuesday maybe Monday.

[TD-er]

There are some circumstances when you may have multiple accesspoints with the same SSID.
For example:

• Using a repeater
• WiFi mesh setup

At this moment you can only define the SSID/passwd in ESPeasy, but at initial configuration you can select one from a WiFi scan result.
It is also possible to give the BSSID at connection in the Arduino libraries. So it could very well be possible to differentiate on different access points, even when they have the same SSID.

So there may be the possibility the ESP module is connecting to the weakest one when making the initial connect. But if we add some BSSID to the settings, we can make sure it is only trying to connect to the preferred one.
So if you could try to connect to one accesspoint which is not sharing the SSID with another one, you also know for sure it is only attempting to connect to that only one AP.

[redskinhu]

Ok, everything is clear now. Test on Tuesday.

mega-20181125 tested: NG

#2088 Looks same issue to me...

[redskinhu]

Hi

Test results of the ESPEasy_mega-20181121-10-g58278ab (and ESPEasy_mega-20181127 too):

• I can't connect to the "ESP_Easy_0" AP hence the "Authentication error occured" error. WPA key: configesp
• I tried to change the key using the WifiAPKey command but i got "Unknown command!" error on many releases, i didn't tested all.
• I tested the always good ESPEasy_mega-20180818, I can connect to the "ESP_Easy_0" AP with the configesp key and after the AP setup everything is working fine. Except the WifiAPKey command.

So i couldn't test this multiple AP thing :-(

I haven't used this EasySetup thing for a long time (serial is easier to me). Meanwhile is the default WPAkey has changed?

Off:
In the docs the "WiFi#ChangedAccesspoint" section is wrong.
The example is:on MQTTimport#Connected do

hi. the connection to wifi ESP_Easy_mega-20181231_normal_ESP8266_4096 works with post flash action static ip but the ESP_Easy_mega-20181231_normal_IR_ESP8266_4096 and any other ir bin up to xxx09 does not work (even if you flash it over with working bin but if you flash over non working bin with working bin it still will not work). is it posible to replace working wifi bin code to ir bin?

[redskinhu]

Hi

The latest fw which can connect to the wifi is: 20181124.

I tested the all of which has issued after that: no joy. :(

Thanks

Hmm too bad :(
I had really good hopes for this one as soon as I saw the commit on the Arduino repository.

[redskinhu]

Yes the 2.5.0 looks worse than 2.4.2, but i dont give up. I tried every release anyway. The last working release is 20181124.

[redskinhu]

20190121 2.5.0 / 2.4.2 tested, same like 20190116.

[JanSpacil]

I found the same problem with the same board .. last working fw , that I found till today, is ESP_Easy_mega-20190212_dev_ESP8266_4096.bin

[AndrySkuridin]

i have same problem with same board :(

[TD-er]

The current code in the mega branch does have issues connecting to WiFi.
I've been working on it for almost the entire Sunday but it is not fixed yet.
It is almost like a very timing critical bug which may prevent it to connect to WiFi.
There is one somewhat unique timing factor in the connection procedure. Some delay is used based on the last byte of the MAC address to introduce some randomness to prevent a DDOS-like attack on a server/broker after the power has been restored for lots of nodes.

But right now it almost feels random whether a node can connect to WiFi. (just pick another core version or number of plugins included and it may fail or succeed)

[wettermann32]

Just started with ESPEasy, I cant connect to WiFi also.
Using the build 09.08.2019 and one before, flashed blank Image before, tried with or without mesh WiFi (Fritzbox 7590), add WiFi credentials via ESP Easy Flash Tool
Always get the "beacon timeout" every 1000ms in a loop

Is there a older version i could use?

You may try setting up a AP using your phone and see if the problem still persists.

[TD-er]

Things to check: (we should make a link for this somewhere)

• Power stability (add capacitors, good USB cable, etc), newer modules do have low power voltage regulators.
• No metal near the WiFi antenna
• Try sending ping packets to the ESP node from another host

WiFi credentials seem OK, since you do get a connection.

You can try a build from around begin 2018 to be sure the module is OK.
Those versions did not use newer core versions and were not as fast, so less demanding of the ESP at startup.

[wettermann32]

Thanks for your quick answer. I have tested with 3 different HWs (Wemos NodeMCUs), Used Laptop USB Port as Powersupply but also tried external Power (no debug, but no connect to hotspot also). Tried different cable. Tried to test directly in front of the hotspot. No ping replies received from node MCU.

On Tablet Hotspot I'll get every 2853ms:
3803 : WIFI : Disconnected! Reason: '(201) No AP found' Connected for 2852 ms

will test with older builds

[wettermann32]

Here is the new Status:
Version from 28.02.2018 works as expected.
Latest Version does not work, WiFi connects and disconnects every second:

Hi

I moved to ESPHome. These boards are works perfectly with it.

If you're using Homeassistant maybe worth it to try.

Bye

[Grovkillen]

I will close this, open if its still a valid issue.
