could you see about this in your serial debug:
> Also interesting would be to see what your serial debug says after line ""Configuring access point... ", it should give you the intended name of the AP

The CURRENT staging version (Nov 24) is broken - it doesn't let you change the name of your AP.
The CURRENT stable version (Nov 30) works fine.

Hope this helps

- Mon Dec 14, 2015 12:16 pm #36408 1- I think am using the current stable version dated 30 Nov.
2- Alex, you are right: I changed the string "ESP" in the library to "ABC" but I still get ESP_something
3- In the debug window, the intended AP name is indeed "AutoConnectAP"

This means that the AP name is set somewhere else but again, I think am using the stable version.
I will reload it however to double check.
