ESP32-C2 / ESP8684 softAP not working / visible (IDFGH-9413) #10782
Comments
hi, I have tried three IDF versions, v5.0, v5.1 and master(9092b93) but can't reproduce your problem. I set an esp8684 as AP and a ESP32 as a station. The following is my screetshot |
Hi @Xiehanxin, Thank you for testing. I tried it again on a new windows device and on wsl ubuntu with ESP-IDF v5.0.1. It still does only work on C3. After rebuilding it for C2, console output looks fine but no wifi visible. I also checked if there is any RF emission, but there isnt any. Same for the station example. Tested with 3 diffrent ESP8684 Modules on stock dev board and custom hardware. Do you have any ideas? `esp\esp-idf-v5.0.1\examples\wifi\getting_started\softAP>git log -1

Maybe the cause of the 26Mhz crystal oscillator on the ESP8684-MINI/ESP8684-WROOM |
Same bug for me with ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 and SoftAP correctly active: the SSID does not appear as visible in my mac, windows or mobile devices. |
hi, @JavierPascual, could you please show more details, like log, idf version |
@tsVestor could you please switch to 26MHz XTAL and give it a try.
|
hi, @Xiehanxin: Tested with: IDF Version "5.0.1" (yesterday) and "master" (today): I only have "(X) 40 Mhz" XTAL Config option available in menuconfig (ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 module). I'm using SoftAP and SoftAP+STA like years ago... but now, the AP SSID is not visible (and neither I can't connect like with a hidden SSID) |
Would be possible to change the title of this bug? Because it exists also in ESP32-S3 stable processors... |
If you go back to 5.0 then it works? |
hello, Did you manage to solve the issue in S3 becuz I am facing the same issue in my S3 |
Hi! I still have this horrible bug. Today, I'm going to try again with the 5.0 IDF version... keep you informed! |
Did you get this solved? Im having the issue now too :(. And i swear it use to work |
so basically in my case, it was a custom designed PCB which had an issue with antenna trace, it was designed wrong so as soon as I made a cut in antenna trace to break that track it started working |
Do have a custom-designed board or are you using a ready-made ESP32-S3 breakout board? |
@ustccw 666666 Thanks for your comment, it helps me a lot! I change the frequency from 40MHz to 26 MHz, and it works now!
|
I also solved the issue by using the 2.5 ghz band on my router. this was literally all I needed to do |
Thanks for sharing the updates, feel free to reopen. |
For we it was such case. I've changed config to XTAL 26Mhz and Wifi AP works like a charm! Thank you! |

What is the expected behavior?
The WiFi softAP Example should start an AP which is visible to other devices. The same example works on ESP32-C3 but not on ESP32-C2. Same behaviour with diffrent ESP8684 and also with a ESP8684 based custom board. With ESP32-C3 everything works as expected.
What is the actual behavior?
The device log shows that the AP is active and no error but the wifi network is not visible to other devices.

I also tried v5.0, v5.1-dev and master without success.
