Access point remains active when configured to connect to a router

[davo-downunder]

Very nice project!

According to some closed issues, there should be a configuration item that disables the AP once access to a router is configured but so far I've been unable to find it. I figure I'm missing something..

The only item I've found so far is: "Allow simultaneous AP" which I've disabled but that doesn't seem to prevent the AP from starting even after it's connected to my router. Any clues for me?

Thanks in advance!

Thats how it works. Need to press Save to make the change persistent across reboot

I must be doing something wrong then.

The esp32 connects to my router ok and I can reach the web page on my network and use it without any issues.

I've disabled the option: "Allow simultaneous AP", made sure that the configuration has been saved and power cycled the device but the AP is still visible and I can still connect to it.

The entry for "Allow simultaneous IP" in the configs.txt file is: "allowAP00CAllow simultaneous AP " if that helps.

I must be missing something I think :-(

I'll take a look at the code

Thanks!

Here's an example of the serial log output if that helps..

[10:16:37.048 onNetEvent] Wifi Station started, connecting to: router

Thanks!

That worked fine and thanks heaps for your time!

I had to wipe the flash before uploading the new code but the AP has not been started after I configured it to connect to my network.

Much appreciated mate!
