websocket will not connect between 8266 and 8285
Posted: Sun Feb 13, 2022 6:01 pmI have a basic websocket code I have used for several years between 8266 d1 minis. I want to use it between d1 mini and a generic 8285 board but when I try the websocket will not connect. I have tried several different boards with the same result. the 8285 is running as client to an 8266 in softap mode running as websocket server.
I am using aurdino IDE.
this is the client end code ( its just a test routine.)
run on 8266 it gives :-
7777773[WSc] Connected to url: /
[WSc] get ping
bin recieved
[WSc] get pong
[WSc] get pong
bin recieved
bin recieved
bin recieved
But on the 8285 with the same 8266 as server it gives:-
7777711111111111111111111
and does not connect.
status 1 is no ssid found
the signal strength is very good (-25db) on both d1 mini and 8285 ( I use a 5/8 dipole as standard.)
I have completely run out of ideas. Any help gladly received.
