" WiFi.forceSleepEnd()" doesn't compile with staging 2.1.0-rc1

can SB shed some light on the modem status after " WiFi.mode(WIFI_OFF); "?
Maybe esp8266 can "automagically" be put in modem-sleep with WIFI_OFF?

Edit: I think it should be "WiFi.forceSleepWake();"

- Sat Apr 16, 2016 10:24 am #45583 I'm having the same issue, with 2.2.0-rc2

If I regress to 2.0.0-rc2, forceSleepBegin() is not recognised either.

WiFi.forceSleepWake(); seems to work just fine now

I was wondering though if you guys have any idea if it's possible to connect any faster to my wi-fi after i wake up the ESP from light (modem) sleep.

Right now it takes about 4 seconds from modem wake-up to establishing a connection with wi-fi. I know that's pretty fast already, but let's say i want to do some real-time interaction stuff with the ESP, then 4 seconds feels like a lot of 'lag'...

Is it even possible to connect to a wi-fi network within - let's say - 2 seconds after waking from from modem sleep??

Cheers!
