I’m using the ESP8266 Thing Dev board and trying to load different arduino example programs on it. The first program I put on is the Sparkfun AP Web Server example sketch from https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/es … web-server .
That worked great and created a wifi network I could connect to with my phone. But, no other example sketch I use from the ESP8266 arduino IDE add-on works, and some of them will compile, upload, and then broadcast the wifi SSID from the original Sparkfun AP Web Server example sketch! How is this possible? What’s going on? Specifically the AdvancedWebServer* from the ESP8266WebServer example set suffers from this.
If I try to connect to that spurious wifi network it doesn’t work, even with the same password.
