Hi. I'm using esp8266 with wm ofc. Everthing works as expected thx for this great lib. But I encounter a problem today. Here we go ;
On setup,

 if (!wifiManager.autoConnect("BlaBla")) {
    Serial.println("failed to connect and hit timeout");
  }

It works as expected at the begining. I connect my esp to a router. Then I close the router. And esp disconnect from it normally. Then it starts ap mode which named "AutoConnectAp". But I want same name for this ap mode.
