#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#endif

void setup()
{  
  Serial.begin(115200);
  delay(100);
  WiFi.begin("Livebox-C806","*******");

  // attente connexion
  Serial.print("\nConnecting HotSpot");
  while(WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED)
  {
    delay(500);
    Serial.print(".");
  }
  Serial.print("\nWifi OK, IP: ");
  Serial.print(WiFi.localIP());
  Serial.print(" Passerelle: ");

Please try (in v2.0.5) enabling "erase all flash before upload" in the Tools menu, and then upload the firmware again. It looks like you have cached expired credentials.

thank you.
done, but not efficient.

-94 is a terrible signal strength. Did you forget to connect an antenna to the module (only applies to u.FL version)?

[dvarrel]

this is the module :

with a ap rssi -22dB, it did not connect anymore

[Jeff-Jordan]

it's an ESP32 D0WD-V3 problem (maybe RTOS related).
Look here, there the issue is reported as well.... and I was able to track down the problem to the encryption password.
It seems to happen, when the password string only contains numbers.

[dvarrel]

i try with open-AP , also changing the key with alphanumeric, just alpha, just numeric...
also try with wifiMulti example

:-(

my chip : ESP32-D0WDQ5 Rev 3

As noted in #7562, the Wemos modules have a hardware issue that can be fixed by modifying the board. If that resolves your problem, then please close this issue.
