<![CDATA[M5StickC Plus and Wifi]]>Is there a known issue with Wifi when using the Ardunio IDE?

Using the Arduino IDE with the latest stable ESP32 Package (version 1.0.4) and the current version of M5StickC-Plus library (version 0.1) I have been struggling to determine why wifi does not work on M5StickC-Plus devices. In each case WiFi.status() returns WL_NO_SHIELD. I tested the code on two different devices and I have noted others reporting the same issue.

The code in questions works fine on a M5StickC device so it would appear to be something specific to the Plus devices.

If you have any ideas on how to isolate this issue we would be appreciative.

could you share your code (or at least the WiFi relevant part)?

Anyhow, below is how I can successfully connect my M5StickC Plus to WiFi:

#include "M5StickCPlus.h"
#include <WiFi.h>

const char* ssid       = "ssid";
const char* password   = "password";

void setup() {
  M5.begin(true, true, true);

  Serial.printf("Connecting to %s ", ssid);
  WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
      delay(500);
      Serial.print(".");
  }
  Serial.println(" CONNECTED");
}

void loop() {
}

Thanks
Felix
