Hello,

Having a problem with an example from your Book on ESP8266, the WiFi Manager, I am trying the second example where custom parameters are set, In my case I am wanting to just set the I.P, not using the MQTT part.

The problem I am facing is that the file system retrieves the saved setting but always fails to connect when I am using a Static IP address by using the following….

  WiFiManager wifiManager;

  //set config save notify callback
  wifiManager.setSaveConfigCallback(saveConfigCallback);

  //set static ip
  IPAddress _ip,_gw,_sn;
  _ip.fromString(static_ip);
  _gw.fromString(static_gw);
  _sn.fromString(static_sn);

wifiManager.setSTAStaticIPConfig(_ip, _gw, _sn);
However when I try using the DHCP version it works, suspecting an issue with the Current Arduino IDE I switched to 1.8.8, Still have problems while using the Set Static IP.

” wifiManager.setSTAStaticIPConfig(_ip, _gw, _sn);” is implimented from the wiFi Manager Example for setting a Static IP for the ESP8266

Your Insight into it might help, looking forward to an early reply.

Kind Regards

Madhav Tenneti.
