ESP8266 Community Forum

- Thu Apr 21, 2016 5:01 pm #45959 So I've been looking around the source for a way to get the remote IP of a connected client with ESP8266WebServer, but found that it may only be possible with the WifiClient library. I noticed that the WebServer calls on WifiClient with:

Code: Select allserver.handleClient();

but I'm not sure that is helpful. Is there any way to get the remote IP with ESP8266WebServer?

If you don't do regular calls to server.handleClient() in the loop(), your ESP8266WebServer will simply not work !

Sorry for the confusion, I just need to find the IP of the clients that connect to my ESP8266WebServer. I'm using the HelloServer example.

Code: Select allwebserver.client().remoteIP();

Still, your question or problem isn't clear if you didn't find the above by yourself...
