In this project, I have used connection via SOFT AP. At the start, I was having a problem with why the board is not connecting to the network. There were two possible reasons that I discovered:
The video shows how the LED in the board should light up when the connection is established. The BLUE and GREEN LED should be steady. The ORANGE LED should be blinking slowly.
Once connection is established, you will see the sensor data as shown below:
- The board is only limited to connect to 2.4 GHz WiFi connection and since my WiFi is already 5G, it's having a hard time to connect.
- SOLUTION: I opted to use my mobile phone as a hotspot.
- The board is having a hard time authenticating passwords with special characters.
- SOLUTION: I opted to change my password to a simple one.
