What is the best way to erase the stored WiFi credentials on the ESP-12e

file.remove('config.lc') does not help.

Re-Flashing the .bin file also does not help.

what ever I do , it just logs on to the Router.

Code: Select all

esptool.py --port <serial-port-of-ESP8266> erase_flash

should help.

I use Window OS and use ESPloere and even tried the format command , which I presume erases the Flash.

No , does not work

Very simply.
Like this:

Code: Select all wifi.sta.config("xxxxxxxx","xxxxxxxx"

Beter like this:

Code: Select all

wifi.sta.config(string.char(0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff),string.char(0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff))

Clear all flash memory?
Or not?
