- Tue May 08, 2018 12:28 pm #75833 Select Tools, Debug port "Serial"
then Debug level "WiFi" or whatever level you want.

But first try adding ESP.eraseConfig()
You may have to do a complete erase but I don't have that information handy.

- Tue May 08, 2018 1:26 pm #75834 The advise is a little sketchy.

I added ESP.eraseConfig(); to the sketch in several places one at a time & ran compile. Each time I got the following error:

Quick_Start_WiFi.ino:3: error: 'ESP' does not name a type
ESP.eraseConfig();
^
exit status 1
'ESP' does not name a typeI

I also went to two different places in Tools , found, & selected:
"Serial" and then"WiFi". Nothing happened.

What version of Arduino, and ESP8266 for Arduino do you have installed?

- Tue May 08, 2018 2:47 pm #75836 Hi Rudy. Thanks for taking on my problem.
1) I could not find Setup on any of the menu items, so I couldn't load ESP.eraseConfig(); in Setup.
2) The Arduino IDE is 1.8.5
3) I don't know how to find the "version" of ESP8266, I have looked in all of the readme's in the libraries, no help. You will have to give me step-by-step instructions on where to look to get that information.
