ESP8266 Not connecting to Wifi when using Blynk

Im using Ardunio with ESP8266 and following this tutorial 1.3 Connecting the R3 board to Blynk — SunFounder 3in1 Kit documentation
Code:

#define BLYNK_TEMPLATE_ID "(these are set to the right thing)"
#define BLYNK_TEMPLATE_NAME "(these are set to the right thing)"
#define BLYNK_AUTH_TOKEN "(these are set to the right thing)"


// Comment this out to disable prints and save space
#define BLYNK_PRINT Serial


#include <ESP8266_Lib.h>
#include <BlynkSimpleShieldEsp8266.h>

char auth[] = BLYNK_AUTH_TOKEN;

// Your WiFi credentials.
// Set password to "" for open networks.
char ssid[] = "(these are set to the right thing)";
char pass[] = "(these are set to the right thing)";

// Hardware Serial on Mega, Leonardo, Micro...
// #define EspSerial Serial1

// or Software Serial on Uno, Nano...
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial EspSerial(2, 3); // RX, TX

// Your ESP8266 baud rate:
#define ESP8266_BAUD 115200

ESP8266 wifi(&EspSerial);



void setup()
{
  // Debug console
  Serial.begin(115200);

  // Set ESP8266 baud rate
  EspSerial.begin(ESP8266_BAUD);
  delay(10);
  // You can also specify server:
  Blynk.begin(auth, wifi, ssid, pass);
  //Blynk.begin(auth, wifi, ssid, pass, IPAddress(192,168,1,100), 8080);
}

void loop()
{
  Blynk.run();
  // You can inject your own code or combine it with other sketches.
  // Check other examples on how to communicate with Blynk. Remember
  // to avoid delay() function!
}

In the Serial Monitor it only shows “Connecting to (my Wifi)”
If anyone can help i would really appreciate it!

SoftwareSerial on the Uno can’t support baud rates faster than 9600.

You should read this…

Pete.

I changed the baud rate and used the code you have left in that guide and changed it so it would work for me and nothing changed :frowning:

Thank you for the quick reply!

What baud rate is your ESP8266 expecting?
How have you configured this? What AT command did you use for this, and what hardware?

Is your WiFi network 2.4GHz ?

Pete.

Wifi is 2.4Ghz, im not sure what baud rate my ESP8266 is expecting ill go see what it is and change accordingly, Thank you!

I’d suggest that you re-read the topic I linked to earlier.
You need to use an FTDI adapter to issue the correct AT command to your ESP-01 to change its baud rate in a way which will persist after a reboot.
The correct command to use will depend on the model and firmware version of your ESP.
