ESP8266 Web Server to storing ap config to EEPROM

ESP8266 Web Server to storing ap config to EEPROM.

Original by chriscook8 from esp8266.com I just modified to use ESP8266WebServer library for easy to handle the http request.

This is sample code not yet complete.

Todo

  • when Wifi connected need to close the softAP.

  • maybe some dns with ESP8266mDNS.

Use

  1. authen to softAP test with password test
  2. go to 192.168.4.1 and enter your ssid
  3. restart esp!

Hi, just tested your code. It will always try to connect with the WiFi irrespective of credentials are stored or not. Checking the length of esid is wrong. It will always return 32. Simply checking if esid != "" works fine.
