Feature request: connect with specific BSSID obtaining from of a networkscann #1678
Comments
This is based on the scan options esp does this because its faster but sucks for mesh. You can adjust this and you can also save bssid automatically. |
@tablatronix |
check the super example I might add a UI toggle for this at some point |
wow, looks brilliant. thx so much. `
` what do you think about that? to complicated? |
Esp will save bssid for you. I did some work on this in #1342 I will revisit the status |
oh - I see. thx! |
I tested it (your three Lines of code by putting it in first Place of My void Setup. Workshop Perfect. I Would like to say thank you a) for your Library and b) for your fast reply. |
They turned it to fast so battery low power devices connect much faster |
yes, thats true. knowing this, maybe even a would still be nice to know how to pass a specific BSSID to wifi.mangers autoconect or add optional BSSID paramater so that someone could fill it (like: |
yeah I thought I added this somewhere but I cant find it |
You told that so i searched it on here in different request, discussions but did Not find it. |
It is not consistent. sometimes now it gets the best rssi but not always. it seems as if I need to make a time out. |
I dont think so, the begin() should be doing a scan every connect before, unless you have issues like ap not found or something |
thx, whatever, it would be great to pass a specifi bssid to wifimanger anyway. |
Yeah I will try to test this a bit, I have a mesh network, I also just updated the fastconnect feature branch to test that I might have made a branch that I never pushed, or maybe its a PR, I know I had basic set bssid as one, but maybe there was esp bugs and I abandoned it at the time I even had it set to auto use bssid if you have AP grouping turned off |
okay, gerat. let me know. I will help to test as i have a great mesh with 5 AP. |

Description
Problem description
it would be very useful to be able to do soemthing like this, after a networkscan:
WiFi.begin(ssid, password, Kanal, WiFi.BSSID(i))
Message:
As I found, that it often reconnects to first BSSID it has ever connectet, it tends to only reconnect to this BSSID.
with WiFi.begin(ssid, password, Kanal, WiFi.BSSID(i)) i can change that behavior easily, but I cant do that with Wifi.Manger as I dont have access to the password for example and as i dont wanna store it in my coding I use Wifi-Manger.
