Alex, I would like to know what is the use of delay(5000) after the ESP.reset() in your example code? is this line ever executed? I would think that ESP.reset() restarts the sketch from the beginning?

hi,
if it resets instantly for you, no real reason.
i saw it not resetting instantly or not going to sleep instantly at times, but it could probably be 1 sec , or it might not be called at all like you say. I just left it as it doesn t do any harm

Hi All,

I am also facing the same issue using the EEPROM and saving SSID and PASSWORD. I have not yet included urldecode. I have some base code ready for testing with GPIO on off capbilities. I have used the apboot code as reference and removed the bugs and now I am developing applications with open APIs.

Feel free to check the code

alextu this might be more of a Wemo question than a WiFIManager question but I'll ask anyway.
My Wemo D1 mini arrived this morning and your basic sketch loaded up fine. I didn't enter any SSID or PWD in the webpage at 192.168.4.1 as I want to use your slightly more advanced sketch to include Blynk auth.

The Wemo will no longer take any further sketches of any kind and I guess this is because it is now in AP mode. Tried using the reset button at various intervals during the sketch upload but it still fails to access the Com port.

Do you know how I reset the Wemo so I can move on to your Blynk auth sketch? I did ask Google but nothing forthcoming.
