Hi sivar2311,
I expected the new ESP32 to get a different IP address, but by NOT trying to force a static IP address, it comes up with the following on the VSC serial monitor ….
IP address: 192.168.0.127
MAC address: 84:1F:E8:27:8F:6C
Google tells me this IP address is usually my router’s admin page.
If I force an avilable static IP address, the VSC serial monitor shows …..
IP address: 192.168.1.150
MAC address: 84:1F:E8:27:8F:6C
My router shows no such device connected.
I’ve used this new ESP32 device (with separate aerial) before and it connected ok, but not now.
I’ve also tried again today my old ESP32-Wroom (without a sparate aerial), with this same code and it works fine with or without a static IP. It’s “natural” IP is 192.168.1.160, or I can force it to claim 192.168.1.150.
This is my code (not showing all webserver HTML, etc) …
