WiFi Component
|
|
|
|
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This core esphomelib component sets up WiFi connections to access points
|
|
|
|
|
|
for you. It needs to be in your configuration or otherwise esphomeyaml
|
|
|
|
|
|
will fail in the config validation stage.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It’s recommended to provide a static IP for your node, as it can
|
|
|
|
|
|
dramatically improve connection times.

Access Point Mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since version 1.3, esphomelib has an optional "Access Point Mode". If you include ``ap:``
|
|
|
|
|
|
in your wifi configuration, esphomelib will automatically set up an access point that you
|
|
|
|
|
|
can connect to. Additionally, you can specify both a "normal" station mode and AP mode at the
|
|
|
|
|
|
same time. This will cause esphomelib to only enable the access point when no connection
|
|
|
|
|
|
to the wifi router can be made.
