[Matthww]

Hello

I tried to reflash it but now it's asking for a password to connect to an open wifi network??

I'm using a NodeMCU v3 lolin

Reflashing doesn't change the stored settings, try to do "reset factory" instead.

Your log shows, that it tried to connect (and maybe failed). However your ESP's AP is open, i.e. the password will not be used.

Try flash an example SoftAP to Your ESP with ap_ssid and ap_password. Then, flash esp_repeater will OK.

I don't know if I should open an other issue or not but hear is my problem : I have a similar issue but i can connect and it works when the ap_open is 1. Just when there is a password and the ap_open is 0 my computer can't connect.

Here is what I see in the console during my computer connection attempts :

station: 34:02:86:priv:priv:priv join, AID = 1
station: 34:02:86:priv:priv:priv join, AID = 1
E:M 672
E:M 672
E:M 672
E:M 672
E:M 672
station: 34:02:86:priv:priv:priv leave, AID = 1
rm 1
station: 34:02:86:priv:priv:priv leave, AID = 1

"E:M XXX" is a typical error messages of the driver when it has a lack of buffers. It is an indication of overload. I am not aware how to improve that.
