I did some more testing. Got also to my friend's rocket PC and it is still the same.
I am connected through the Wifi to the Wemos name "ESP".
I'll be happy to connect in STA mode. Can you give me the tip for that ?
For sure all this is new for me !
Thanks for helping.

Here is a log of what's happening:

Connection to Wifi ESP quite long 20 sec.
[FILE-MANAGER] times-out. «Retry» button used.
Login box ok but ends in [SETTINGS] instead of File-manager.
[FILE-MANAGER] times-out. «Retry» button used.
Ends-up correctly in the file-manager.
File - Rename takes 15 secs to show the renaming screen.
After renaming another 15 secs to show the file-manager screen.

[VARS] takes 3 secs.
[FILE-MANAGER] another 10 secs.

Time_out message = ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

to connect in STA mode you need to fill the parameter page.
The instructions are provided here :
http://www.esp8266basic.com/editor-interface.html
Setting page, enter the name of your WIFI connection (NEUF_xxxx, ....) and the wifi password then click on save.
Resetting the ESP, it should connect on your local router; the assigned IP will be shown on the serial port.

No timemout messages or boxes.
Menu items works fine also.
Your helping is very productive on my side.

Just for my understanding:
How or why are 2 IP adresses shown ?
192.168.4.1 natively and 192.168.43.133 in the terminal ?

Thanks a lot !

the IP 192.168.4.1 is fixed as soon as the ESP is in AP mode, whenever the other address is given by the DHCP server of your router; in your case the local IP of your router should be 192.168.43.1.
