Hi, I used an example sketch that defined the SSID as "ESP32 Access Point" and Password of "123456789". I used the ESP32Dev board option and the only thing I changed was the baud rate to 115200. Uploaded it and it worked and I could see the SSID on the phone and laptop and connect OK with the passsword.
I decided to change the SSID so changed that and the password as shown below. But when I compile and upload it still displays the "ESP32.."
I have tried shutting down everything, deleting the entries in the phone (Android Pie) and laptop (Mint 19.1+Cinnamon) Network, hard rebooting, you name it, I think I have tried it.
It seems like the ESP32 has a special buffer somewhere to store the assigned SSID and that needs a specific control to change it.
How can I change to the SSID of my choice any time I want to change it?
I cannot log into Github anymore to ask Expressif as it sends me a code and shows an email address that means nothing to me.
#include <WiFi.h>
const char* ssid = "football";
const char* password = "098765";
WiFiServer server(80);
// Variable to store the HTTP request
String header;
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
// Connect to Wi-Fi network with SSID and password
Serial.print("Setting AP (Access Point)…");
// Remove the password parameter, if you want the AP (Access Point) to be open
WiFi.softAP(ssid, password);
IPAddress IP = WiFi.softAPIP();
Serial.print("AP IP address: ");
Serial.println(IP);
server.begin();
}
void loop() {
}
