the WDT has been disabled and everything else has been elimintaed (uart, etc) I have yet to physically hookup all 512 leds ... but I have tested it by sending the data ... I have experienced a few lockups (much less then with cnlohr's code) but when I run it with the tpm2net code it has run for (132 leds) a full day without any problems. I think this might be due to the fact that the hosting software (ie. pixelcontroller) actually only sends "updated" data and ignores the "unchanged" to reduce the overall network output ... not fully sure ... but it is working for me
ALSO: how else can this be accomplished without locking the interrupts? I have seen examples (outside sources ... not on the esp8266) that use either UART or SPI to handel it (by encoding the ws2812 protocol onto the underlying protocol ...) The only reason we are locking interrupts is to prevent interrupting the timing of the gpio switching ... so ... HOW?
