wifi connection problems

Recently I started working on ESP8266 port of Espruino (almost everybody know what is Espruino now... it not, http://www.espruino.com)
I am using the MOD-WIFI-ESP8266-DEV board from Olimex (https://www.olimex.com/Products/IoT/MOD ... e-hardware)

I am facing some problems connecting to both my access point at work as well as my access point at home. here are the facts:

I set up a wifi at work, based on a D-LINK DSL-G604T gateway. Wifi is working well when connecting with my phone, but nothing happens with ESP8266 (even wifi.scan() never finds it). It is not a hidden-ssid problem, I already checked.

I tried to connect my ESP8266 at home, with a fairly new access point. I am able to connect almost every device at home such as phones, laptops, electronic devices (Electric Imp, Spark Core, and so on) BUT not my ESP8266, even if I observed odd behaviours:

wifi.scan() seems to find occasionally my ssid
wifi.connect() can connect to my access point 1 time out of 10
when connected, I can ping my device for some time, then it does not respond, then it responds again, and so on...

If anyone already solved such a problem, I look forward to read his thoughts about it ! :smile:
