Rebooting ESP8622 (Non Blynk Related)

Solved
1

I have several ESP8622 boards that make up my Home Automation project. The boards were all rebooting sequentially around the same time. In other words they would all be connected and run for several hours, and then they would all start to reboot around the same time (sequentially). I am using the Huzzah 8622 boards. I tried hardware solutions (filter caps, snubber circuits…etc) but finally came across an article listed below:

if (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
}
or with

WiFi.persistent(false);
WiFi.mode(WIFI_OFF); // this is a temporary line, to be removed after SDK update to 1.5.4
WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
WiFi.begin(ssid, password);

Time will tell whether this has solved my problem …

You are bringing up a Non Blynk issue about an old version of the ESP Arduino core that has since been replaced with 2.4.0

True … it is a non blynk issue. But was such a headache to me… I just thought it would be nice to share.

I thought that was what Facebook was for :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
