📄 Description

The optional fast connect support uses the version of WiFi.begin with channel and router mac address defined. This avoids scanning operations during normal start up and reduces the start up connect time considerably (from 3 seconds down to 1 second).

This is particularly beneficial in deep sleep applications where the faster start up makes it more responsive to a wake and minimises power usage if on battery.

Default functionality is left as before. Fast connect is activated using the setFastConnectMode(true) call. The channel and mac address are retrieved automatically when required.
