I had an ESP32 lying around and used it as AP. The UDP broadcast has been extremely reliable and completely lag-free. All my ESP8266 stations instantly received the byte and switch pattern in concert. It's beautiful.

- Mon Apr 23, 2018 12:07 am #75553 What do you think actually solved the problem : Was it use of UDP broadcast, or the combination of UDP boardcast from an ESP32 AP? I'm just curious so that there's a reference solution to this kind of architecture in the future.
