General Adafruit IO issues

[nick6811]

I've used Adafruit IO successfully in the past and loved it. Now trying to get any of my feather devices to work with no success. Initially tried with 2 different Huzzah ESP32s. I can get them to load the WipperSnapper firmware to load on them, but then cant get them to connect to Wifi or Adafruit IO with no real idea why from the serial monitor. Then tried to connect via Arduino sketches with the same issue.

Ultimately decided to try an older Huzzah ESP 8266 - using the WipperSnapper firmware able to get it to connect to my wifi, but not Adafruit IO. Tried to connect using the Publish and temp&humidity Arduino sketches which appeared to connect and function as intended from the serial monitor output, but my streams never updated with the new data. I've checked my Adafruit IO username and key multiple times, regenerated my key, etc. Is anyone else having trouble like this? I've had these exact sketches working years ago with no trouble and now I cant seem to get anything to work.

What are you using for WiFi?

Does anything show up on your access point side?

Paste in the console output you are seeing from Whippersnapper as well as the version of Whippersnapper you are running.

I am able to see the ESP on the network and it responds to pings. My wifi setup is a little odd where my apartment building has a central network which is divided into VLANs for each apartment based on MAC addresses. The MAC for this device is registered with the system. I am currently using other ESP8266s on this network without any issues.

The console output it copied below which continuously loops:

appreciate your help

I can not reproduce this with my WiFi network. I'd be able to help further with debugging if we can get that stack trace of your ESP dumped, and decoded.

You will need to use the ESPExceptionDecoder plugin for Arduino.

Usage instructions: https://github.com/me-no-dev/EspExceptionDecoder#usage

Once decoded, please paste the output from the esp exception decoder here
