Hi tzapu,

maybe this has already been in the forum but I couldn't find it. I am working on a project with the option to read data via the internet. now my question is that i want the entire wifi manager (wifi) to be switched off after a certain time if it is not cofigured by the user. the only thing I can find is a timeout for the config portal.

in brief:

I get stuck with the code if the WiFi is not set, here I want to give the user 5 minutes to configure the WiFi. after 5 minutes the device must simply execute its code without wifi.

maybe you can help me.

Code:
void setup(void) {
Serial.begin(115200);
pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
Wire.begin(5,4); // change hardware I2C pins to (5,4) (D1,D2)
int chk = DHT.read(dht);
pinMode(RELAY, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(RELAY, 1);// Turns Relay On
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);
u8g2.begin(); // init display
//-------------------------------------------
//Versie firmware
u8g2.clearBuffer(); // clear the internal memory
u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_helvB08_tr);
u8g2.drawStr( 0, 10, "JDJ electronics");
u8g2.drawStr( 0, 30, "Model: DM");
u8g2.drawStr( 0, 40, "Firmware: v2.5");
u8g2.drawStr( 0, 50, "251019"); //firmware date
u8g2.drawStr( 10, 60, "2019");
u8g2.setCursor(0, 60);
u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_helvB08_tf);
u8g2.print(char(169)); // copyright karakter
u8g2.sendBuffer(); // transfer internal memory to the display
delay(3000);

//Wifi setup + oled
u8g2.clearBuffer(); // clear the internal memory
u8g2.setCursor(15, 36);
u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_open_iconic_www_2x_t);
u8g2.print(char(81)); // WIFI icon
u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_helvB08_tr);
u8g2.drawStr( 40, 32, "Connect to");
u8g2.drawStr( 40, 45, "JDJ-DM");
u8g2.sendBuffer(); // transfer internal memory to the display

WiFiManager wifiManager;
wifiManager.autoConnect("JDJ-DM");
wifiManager.setConfigPortalTimeout(60);
if(!wifiManager.autoConnect()) {
Serial.println("failed to connect and hit timeout");
delay(3000);
//reset and try again, or maybe put it to deep sleep
ESP.reset();
}

Serial.println("Connected.");
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);
server.begin();

server.on("/", handle_OnConnect);
server.onNotFound(handle_NotFound);

server.begin();
Serial.println("HTTP server started");
Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());

//Connected Succes
u8g2.clearBuffer(); // clear the internal memory
u8g2.setCursor(15, 36);
u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_open_iconic_www_2x_t);
u8g2.print(char(81)); // WIFI icon
u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_helvB08_tr);
u8g2.drawStr( 40, 32, "Connected");
u8g2.setCursor( 40, 45);
u8g2.print(WiFi.localIP());
u8g2.sendBuffer(); // transfer internal memory to the display
delay(1000);

//Check up
u8g2.clearBuffer(); // clear the internal memory
u8g2.setCursor(15, 36);
u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_open_iconic_embedded_2x_t);
u8g2.print(char(66)); // tandwiel
u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_helvB08_tr);
u8g2.drawStr( 40, 32, "DM-CHECK");
u8g2.drawStr( 40, 45, "WAIT...");
u8g2.sendBuffer(); // transfer internal memory to the display
delay(1000);

//Volt check up
u8g2.clearBuffer(); // clear the internal memory
u8g2.setCursor(15, 36);

u8g2.drawStr( 40, 32, "VOLTAGE");
u8g2.drawStr( 40, 45, "CHECK...");
u8g2.sendBuffer(); // transfer internal memory to the display
delay(1000);

//Check compleet
u8g2.clearBuffer(); // clear the internal memory
u8g2.setCursor(45, 45);
u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_open_iconic_check_4x_t);
u8g2.print(char(64)); // vinkje iccon
u8g2.sendBuffer();
delay(1000);

Yours sincerly,

I think your problem is this:

if(!wifiManager.autoConnect()) {
Serial.println("failed to connect and hit timeout");
delay(3000);
//reset and try again, or maybe put it to deep sleep
ESP.reset();
}

When Wifimanager ends with connection failed, the ESP resets. So you are in a loop. Take out the ESP.reset() command and you should be fine.
