What happened?
I set up the WiFi connection to my router as follows: $Sta/SSID=HUAWEI-B535-49C4 $Sta/Password=****** $Sta/IPMode=DHCP $Sta/IP=0.0.0.0 $Sta/Gateway=192.168.8.1 $Sta/Netmask=255.255.255.0
The startup messages show that it does not connect, but falls back to AP mode.
Other Information
Erased the ESP32 using erase.sh and loaded a sample wifi test program through Arduino IDE with the following function: (Courtesy of Random Nerd Tutorials)
void initWiFi() { WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA); WiFi.begin(ssid, password); Serial.print("Connecting to WiFi .."); while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) { Serial.print('.'); delay(1000); } Serial.println(Wi-Fi.localIP()); }
That also failed to connect until the delay was changed to 5000, when it connected every time.
The conclusion is that some routers require more time to connect than is being allowed by the delay interval between retries. Is there a way to increase the delay between retries to connect?
