#90884 I am trying to setup 2 methods of user-side connection of the ESP32 device to WIFI. I have been able to get WPS working, but I also want to get ESPTOUCH (smartconfig) working. (I want a fool proof set of methods, and I am doing this because the WPS doesn't work with all WIFI routers even if they have the WPS button. We've tried different routers, some connect, some don't.)

So we need to also have a secondary method for users in the field to easily join the boards to WIFI.

I am on the latest firmware for the board (updated it over WIFI) ESP32-WROOM

I am communicating with the ESP32 via RS232 / AT Commands. No issues in that regard, the unit is operational and working.

When I issue the AT+CWSTARTSMART command to the board, it says OK. At that point I stay in a loop and check the results but I am only getting a "5" status response back. Nothing ever changes at that point, no connection between ESPTOUCH app and the ESP32... just repeated "5" responses.

Can someone please share a working code snippet or proper commands to send to the ESP32-WROOM to get the board to "see" the ESPTOUCH app query to receive the WIFI Config?

There is a complete lack of examples and documentation on the web for this.

THANK YOU in advance.
