ESP8266 and ESPAsyncWiFiManager.h

Hello everyone.

Due to my limited knowledge of networks and Wi-Fi, I am unable to identify and resolve
a problem I am having with a project.

Since the project code is very large, I have made a summary that reproduces the problem.

The project uses an ESP8266.
There is no need to post a schematic, since I am only using the ESP8266 without connecting
anything to it, other than the USB cable.

In addition to other libraries, I am using "ESPAsyncWiFiManager.h" in the code.
The link to it and the others I use are in the code.

I will also post the printout, since it makes it easier to visualize the problem.

To provide the IP/GW/SN data, I use a file loaded into SPIFFS, named "config.json"
as used in examples of the "ESPAsyncWiFiManager.h" library.

The problem is the ESP8266 IP that appears and I don't know where it comes from and
how to change or delete it.

In the printout I will mark it with <<<<<------

I appreciate any help and teaching.

The printout:

Static_gateway 192.168.1.254

The config.json file.

{"ip":"192.168.1.52","gateway":"192.168.1.254","subnet":"255.255.255.0"}

I have test with another net and another IP,
but the problem remained.
