Connect to WiFi and esp8266

[jensahylda]

Hello

I have a feeling that when i connect to a WiFi with multiple identical networks. Say a WiFi router with name "MyRouter" and password "12345678". And then an extender with same name "MyRouter" and password "12345678".

Then its random which one is connected to. I would expect the SSID with the best signal quality is chosen but i think its random.

Anyone knows if this assumption is correct? If yes, any hints where to modify Sming to achieve this?

Regards Jens

See #2522 which added an overload to Station::config() which takes a StationClass::Config structure. Here's a brief how-to:

Config cfg{
	.ssid = WIFI_SSID,
 	.password = WIFI_PASSWORD,
 	.bssid = "Actual BSSID",
	.autoConnectOnStartup = ...,
	.save = ...,
};
WifiStation,config(cfg);

You'll need to find the station BSSID and pass it in the config call.
