Adding stuff etc to esp8266-rtos

[andrewtholt]

Hi,

I have found time to look at cforth again and the new goodness that you have added.

Given that it's now on top of Esprissif's extended FreeRTOS I was looking at adding words for things like MQTT and looking in to lower power modes.

Not wanting to create a parallel implementation of these things I was wondering what your plans were for features.

Regards,
Andrew

I'm not working on cforth at this instant so anything you do in the near future is not likely to be redundant.

The MQTT implementation in src/app/esp32/mqtt.fth is likely to work in esp8266-rtos, perhaps unmodified.

Let me know what you discover, and provide PRs for any exciting new features that you develop.

Hi, In the past I reported that I could not connect to my router when it was set to
the '11N protocol only' in my router.
After adding 'esp_wifi_set_protocol' in
~/cforth/src/app/esp8266-rtos/sdk_src/main/interface.c it works.
Here is what I did, perhaps it could be better:

if (strlen(password)) {
    wifi_config.sta.threshold.authmode = WIFI_AUTH_WEP;

// When I set in my router to 11N ONLY then:
esp_wifi_set_protocol(ESP_IF_WIFI_STA, WIFI_PROTOCOL_11B | WIFI_PROTOCOL_11G | WIFI_PROTOCOL_11N); // Works
// esp_wifi_set_protocol(ESP_IF_WIFI_STA, WIFI_PROTOCOL_11B | WIFI_PROTOCOL_11G); // Fails
}
Regards, Jos

Hi, Thanks for the hint, I know about the security problem of web Encryption.
It is off in my router.
Despite that fact I am able to connect to my router using WPA2-PSK.
It seems the line WIFI_AUTH_WEP is overruled.
Also note that it I did not change that line in interface.c.

Kind regards, Jos
