Re: Storing and reading ssid/pass from eeprom, AP to config

- Wed Oct 28, 2015 7:07 am #32447 An example might be something like I have pasted below. I realize not everybody would want this, but for me it would be nice to be able to add this without modifying your code (I realize it's only a single line, but just out of principle). Also, I think it would be ideal to be able to enable or disable the captive portal piece. For me that hasn't worked so well, or takes a really long time to "trigger". I think I'd prefer to just tell my family "type in 192.168.4.1" or whatever.

Thanks again!

Here is the same thing, minified:

- Wed Oct 28, 2015 7:55 am #32452 hi, the captive portal doesn t disable the option of entering 192.168.4.1 manually. you can still go down that route.

on your html i see bootstrap cdn being loaded from the internet, which won t be possible really since you aren t connecte to wifi, so it would still look the same. the other change i noticed is you having a few preset ssid's.

is there anything i missed?
