In my experience connecting with an iPhone works best. Most of the time I’ve needed to set the IP address manually. Select the LCM-XXXX network then click the “i” symbol then select “Configure IP” then configure the IP to be 192.169.4.2, subnet mask 255.255.0.0, router 192.168.4.1, select Save. Then open safari and navigate to 192.168.4.1. On some occasions I’ve had to power cycle the device a few times before it was able to open the setup page. It also helps to have the device as close to the router as possible.

Could you send serial output of the entire sequence? And if you could, a dump of the entire flash? Be aware that this stage of the process is the maximkulkin/wifi-config code

Is it possible to get serial output over IP , remotely?

[HomeACcessoryKid]

No

[peros550]

Logging on remote devices is very important. There are bugs very hard to resolve which might occur randomly or very rarely.

I have seen you have published this repo

Is it ok to use it?

Lcm uses the initial version of udplogger already. But it only starts after a station IP is assigned. For the purpose of this issue it cannot help

The same often happens to me. No ip assigned from DHCP server on ESP8266. I'm using Shelly 1 hardware.

Often happen, sonoff basic after initial flash keeps connecting forever, after 2nd or 3rd restart finally captive screen, then 5 tries to OTA flash from GitHub source. Exhausted...
