Can't connect to ESP82666 Server problem

Hi all
I have been tryin to use Roberemo and the sample WifiWebServer examples in my network.
When I use my phone as a hotspot, I can use the the phone browser or packet send tool to sucessfully send and receive a debuf message on the server ip/port.
However when I use STA mode to register the server with an IP address on my Wifi network, I can't reach that server device anymore. I can see the device in my dhcp and its standard (example even ) code.
WTF is going on here ? It's doing my nut and its gotta be simple.
The serial debu output says the wifi connection to the network is good, DHCP is showing a lease, serial output is showing an IP address and the ESP is just sitting there, not doing anything. Its clearly simple but not occurring to me.
Any ideas?

Code: Select all#include <WiFiClient.h>
WiFiServer server(port);
WiFiClient client;

void setup()
{
  delay(500);
 
  Serial.begin(UART_BAUD);
  //WiFi.hostname("BadgerSPDev1");

  #ifdef MODE_STA
  // STATION mode (ESP connects to router and gets an IP)
  // Assuming phone is also connected to that router
  // from RoboRemo you must connect to the IP of the ESP
  WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
  WiFi.begin( ssid, pwd);
  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED)
  {
    delay(100);
  }
  Serial.println("");
  Serial.print("hostname :");
  Serial.println( WiFi.hostname());
  Serial.print("Status: "); Serial.println(WiFi.status()); 
  Serial.print("IP: ");     Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
  Serial.print("Subnet: "); Serial.println(WiFi.subnetMask());
  Serial.print("Gateway: "); Serial.println(WiFi.gatewayIP());
  Serial.print("SSID: "); Serial.println(WiFi.SSID());
  Serial.print("Signal: "); Serial.println(WiFi.RSSI());
  Serial.print("Networks: "); Serial.println(WiFi.scanNetworks());
  Serial.println("Connected to wifi");

  Serial.println("Starting TCP Server");
  server.begin( ); // start TCP server
}

void loop()
{
  client = server.available(); // wait for it to connect
//etc.

Doing a wider search for this problem and seems like it is ubiquitous , some routers and some wep implementations seem to be the difference.
So I'll be trying:
change the wep encryption AES/TPK
change the SSID and password to less mangled characters
force a disconnect before starting station mode to address partial connections
Implementing WifiManager to set it manually

any more ?
