- Sat Apr 16, 2016 12:23 pm #45592 I have several WiFi routers at home. An ASUS RT-AC68W running stock and a Linksys WRT-54GL running Tomato. I use the AC router for the high speed stuff and the Linksys for devices (Printers, Things, Thermostats...). I am using the Arduio IDE and managed to get debugging on using the Generic ESP8266 board profile. I have a Sparkfun Thing Dev board. When I connect to the AC router it works fine. When I connect to the Linksys I could not get it to work all I got (with debug on) is the following (this is with the WIFIServer example code):

Code: Select allConnecting to Linksys

I did find that it works when I enable 802.11B (actually switching from G only to Auto in the Tomato Menu). I have searched for anything on this, but I seem to be the only one with the issue. Since it works now this is largely a curiosity, but it tasks me and I shall have it
BACKGROUND:
I plan on using one or more of these things to monitor my heating system and control my humidifier (so that when it gets really cold out it turns off to keep the windows dry). I have a radio thermostat that I use the JSON/CURL interface to monitor (SQL) and control (HTML/JS/PHP) via my diskstation. I plan on making the Thing (I call it Thing1) a server, using a CURL interface that the DiskStation would poll to fetch the temperature and humidity data from the Thing

Thanks

- Sun Jun 04, 2017 1:55 pm #66717 I am having a similar problem.
ASUS RT-AC87R works great with the NODEMCU modules.
Linksys EA9500 does not work - DHCP provides address of 192.168.3.150 - this looks like the Guest Network.
Linksys does not provide much information from the embedded application. Also, the web page login for Guest may be a part of the issue. The ESP8266 gets an IP, but for some reason cannot communicate.

I've tried both the regular and guest WiFi accounts and only the ASUS works.
The ASUS is OK, but I've had to reboot a lot to keep up with all of the devices in my house.
