WIFI STATION HOSTNAME DIFFICULTIES

[scargill]

In the SDK:

wifi_station_set_hostname

wifi_station_get_hostname

HOST ID…. If you do an IP scan on a windows network – ESP units will coming up as IP addresses – and Manufacturer ESPRESSIF… there is a WIFI HOSTNAME GET function in the SDK – but not only can I NOT get it to do anything, the corresponding GET function returns something like ESP_945645 – and not what I put in and NEITHER are showing up in the Windows IP scan – so the question is… where are you supposed to use the SET function in the SDK to replace the info that comes out of the GET function – and why isn’t any of this showing up on a Windows scan.

I am too waiting for the next SDK version.

Hi,

for me "wifi_station_set_hostname" is working as expected.

It's NOT working for me (SDK 2.0) and yet some guys who's Arduino/ESP code I'm using... their devices are showing up on my network with the names they've given them - but for me - I always get the default name.... HELP someone.
