So weird I can't make the most basic GET-request, without authentication or JSON. I just try to call an URL, which works great with Postman / Browser, but not with Arduino; even witht the tons of examples. ---

Sorry I found something. ![Schermafbeelding 2023-05-26 om 12.10.34](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/arduino/original/4X/0/e/d/0ed30911771cd40b830e84381e7fb3da5a053286.png) Apparently there were issues with the Host header.. I played with it, and added it now before making the GET-request Now I get a 200 result and no error in the external log file, but it loads the html page source? ```arduino Starting connection to server... connected to server HTTP/1.1 200 OK Host: Server: MADRIX Last-Modified: Fri, 26 May 2023 12:08:18 GMT Content-Type: text/html Content-Length: 22338 Cache-Control: max-age=0 MADRIX 5 on Dynamic

it doesn't like the IP as "Host"? try your servers name ---

Yes, I've tried several. `"Host: Dynamic"` -- which is the actual hostname on the server ![Schermafbeelding 2023-05-26 om 09.59.15](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/arduino/original/4X/9/b/e/9be52e8dc88a12bc750c9f9b7ff852d040c4ac07.jpeg) ![Schermafbeelding 2023-05-26 om 14.47.02](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/arduino/original/4X/0/b/0/0b01b5e8537aa91d177c2969199d1b001d5431c0.png) `"Host: MADRIX` -- which is the actual servername on the server ![Schermafbeelding 2023-05-26 om 14.48.46](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/arduino/original/4X/1/a/1/1a19b0ce4f3a00506ad4b7fb68ae7c9628aae077.png) `"Host: MADRIX 5"` -- which is the actual hostlabel on the server ![Schermafbeelding 2023-05-26 om 14.47.29](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/arduino/original/4X/4/8/2/48207f75402f89e4283b2a126df66027409aca18.png) `"Host: 192.168.2.198"` -- what would make sense `"Host: "Nano33IoT" `-- just as test I've also tried to set the hostname of the Nano - board. Unfortunately also without luck. I was expecting this might work since when I scan the Nano device through a network scanner no hostname is defined. `WiFi.setHostname("Nano-33-IoT");` Unfortunately, when I scanned after adding this code, the hostname of the board was not updated. ---

After many testing I decided to change the board. Now it works! I'm using a simple NodeMCU - 8266 board which made it possible to use different libraries. Still hoping if someone knows what's missing on the ArduinoHttpClient library to do this properly ---
