ESP8266 Web Server

I have multiple esp8266 web servers set up underneath my routers ssid, but sometimes after running for a while one or the other will stop working and will not work again unless I reset or power cycle. Is there a maximum number of clients a esp8266 station server can serve? or is this caused by some other issue?

You probably have some unstable power supply ...

Hi,

What is your symptom?

I'm facing a similar problem and I need to investigate what is the issue, but I've found other people also reporting issues with issues loading the pages after some time. (e.g. https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/issues/2271)

In my case, the issue is that everything works fine until the server stops handling requests and do not sends any page to the client.

As I use it for controlling a garage door, it is difficult for me to set up an environment for debuting it and knowing what is going on.

If I reset the module, everything starts to work fine again.

I have configured the ESP module as an AP and in my case I'm powering it through a LM 7505 connected to the 5v pin.
