Basic Infos

Hardware

WiFimanager Branch/Release: Development

Esp8266/Esp32: ESP8266

Hardware: ESP-01

Core Version: 2.4.0, staging

Description

I am trying to set a static IP once the module is connected to my wifi network so that I can set some additional values for the operation. The problem is that once the module is connected to my wifi, it shows a different localIP than the one I set in SetSTAStaticIPConfig. Please check my code below. I am setting Static IP as 192,168,1,99 but it shows 192.168.1.xx some random value.

How do I fix this?

Settings in IDE

Module: NodeMcu,

  wifiManager.setAPStaticIPConfig(IPAddress(192,168,1,19), IPAddress(192,168,1,1), IPAddress(255,255,255,0));
 
  
  // fetches ssid and pass from eeprom and tries to connect
  // if it does not connect it starts an access point with the specified name
  // here  "AutoConnectAP"
  // and goes into a blocking loop awaiting configuration
  wifiManager.setConfigPortalTimeout(900);
  wifiManager.setConnectTimeout(900);
  wifiManager.setCountry("IN");

  wifiManager.setSTAStaticIPConfig(IPAddress(192,168,1,99), IPAddress(192,168,0,1), IPAddress(255,255,255,0));

  if(wifiManager.autoConnect() == true)
  {
    Serial.println("TRUE - CONNECT");
  }
