Basic Infos

Hardware

WiFimanager Branch/Release: master

Esp8266/Esp32: ESP32

Hardware: LilyGo T7 1.5 w/ ESP-WROOM-8

Core Version: 3.3.2

Description

    WiFiClient client;

    if (!wm.autoConnect()) {
        fatalError("Failed to connect to WIFI");
    }
    WiFi.waitForConnectResult();
    Serial.println("WIFI connected: " + String(WiFi.isConnected()));
    Serial.println("WiFiClient connected: " + String(client.connected()));

This prints:

WIFI connected: 1
WiFiClient connected: 0

I see that the server uses its own WiFiClient, but I can't find a way to get to that instance.

Settings in IDE

IDE: PlatformIO 5
Module: esp32dev

Sorry, my bad, there should be no relation between WiFiManager and WiFiClient.
