ESP8266 Community Forum

- Tue Mar 14, 2017 5:40 pm #63701 Using the arduino IDE a sketch that made the esp8266 (12E) act as a server was flashed.
Next a sketch that made the esp a station was flashed.
Now even in station mode without any code in the sketch to enable a server it remembers being a server.
I tried flashing a blank bin 0x7E0000 ...I tried WiFi.disconnect(true); but the server is persistent.
Is there a sure fire way to make the esp8266 forget its prior life?
