Troubleshooting WiFi Connection Issues and High Latency with ESP32 CAM on Isolated Network
I'm working with the ESP32 CAM WiFi module and encountering two issues. It experiences high latency on my home network, and more concerning, it fails to obtain an IP address on an isolated network created with a Linksys WRT54 router (firmware v 4.21.1), despite other devices connecting successfully. The ESP32 CAM works fine on my home network using the standard 'CameraWebServer_Test' code.
When attempting to connect to the isolated network, the ESP32 CAM (firmware version 1.0.6) produces the following error logs and debug messages:
"WiFi.begin() failed!"
"wl_connect: failed to connect"
"WiFi.status() = DISCONNECTED"
I'd appreciate help understanding why this happens and how to resolve it.
