hello,
i am trying to set my esp 32 as both access point and station mode. I can see the access point has been created and it is visible in my PC and as well as in phone. But i could not connect them at the same time and it is working 1 out of 20 times.
#include <WiFi.h>
#include <WiFiAP.h>
const char* ssid = "Soneil_Electronics";
const char* password = "Soneilwaga123";
const char* assid = "espAccessPoint";
const char* asecret = "hello";
void setup(){
Serial.begin(115200);
WiFi.begin(ssid,password);
WiFi.mode(WIFI_AP_STA);
Serial.println("Creating Accesspoint");
WiFi.softAP(assid,asecret,7,0,5);
Serial.print("IP address:\t");
Serial.println(WiFi.softAPIP());
Serial.print("connecting to...");
Serial.println(ssid);
WiFi.begin(ssid,password);
while(WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED){
delay(500);
Serial.print(".");
}
Serial.println("");
Serial.println("WiFi connected");
Serial.println("IP address: ");
Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
}
void loop(){
}
this is program am using for esp32.
my serial monitor looks like

Hello, to be honest I’m not sure what’s missing in you code… However, I would recommend to take a look at this Unit: https://rntlab.com/extra-access-point-ap-for-wi-fi-car-robot/
It shows how to create a web server that is used an Access Point with the ESP32.
With the method that I’ve used in that project, you don’t need to use the #include <WiFiAP.h> library that you’re using (I’ve never used that before).

hello,
thank you for your response. Could you please recommend something where i can set esp32 as both access point and station mode at the same time.

Unfortunately the ESP32 can only be set as an Access Point or as a Station at a time…
