- Thu Jun 23, 2016 8:40 am #49658 There are to client.connect(), one with "const char *" and one with IPAddress, the first one will use DNS and second one will connect directly to IP.
In other words, you can NOT pass an IP as "const char *" to client.connect().

So, with IP inside a string, you should do :

Code: Select allIPAddress ip("192.168.4.99");
client.connect(ip, 80);
