You can not use standard sync client to get the ip address - you are on async one so (just guessing from my memory) you have to use something like request->client()->remoteIP();. You have to use this probably in asyncwebserver request handler and store this information somewhere in global variable...

Working!!!

Remote IP is working...

Code: Select all   global:
   
   IPAddress ipREMOTE;
   
   setup:
   
   serverAsync.on("/Weather", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest * request) {
   request->send_P(200, PSTR("text/html"), MAINPAGE, processor);
   ipREMOTE = request->client()->remoteIP();
   });

 
   processor function:
   
    if(var == F("CLIENTIP"))
      return ipREMOTE.toString().c_str();

Thank you Pavel your help is appreciated!
