ESP8266EX broken WiFi (no network found)
Posted: Tue Jun 02, 2020 3:34 amI have strange problem with the wifi connection. I have decided to ask you for help because it happens second time. Last time after few day of fighting I threw it in the bin (it was Nodemcu V3 Lolin with metal shield on chip). Now it is nodeM from robotdyn. Generally the module worked fine (it was able to connect to wifi etc.). After the next programming the module is unable to connect to my router. I was trying:
- erase whole flash via esptool (erase_flash),
- flash with last "esp_init_data_default_v08.bin" from SDK via esptool
- WiFi.disconnect() etc.
Each time looks that everythink is ok (no errors during flashing), but my module is not able to connect to any AP. If I run soft AP I'm not able to connect to it (I see SSID).
If I run basic example from wifimanager, the output is:
I have question: should be the coutry code set to CN? I have change it to US, bo no difference. After restart again is CN.
I was also trying (at the beginning) wifi scan example, the output is:
Why the module is finding only one network? At my place there is a lot of wifi networks. Is that a coincidence that every time is finding espressif network (different working nodemcu)?
How to recover the module?
