Be able to set the hostname

Opened this issue 2 years ago · 5 comments

Currrently, there is no way to setup an hostname and it i assuming the ESP default (like: ESP-08206A).
Could we have an additional setting to specify an HOSTNAME?

You can also just do it in your router

Hi @finnie2006, unfortunatly Unifi don't allow you to set an hostname for DHCP clients and that makes sense, because the hostname should be always set by the client...

@finnie2006 -- there are times that won't work for people as mentioned. Thanks though.

@joseal don't known if you fixed it, but with WiFiManager-2.0.15-rc.1 you can set the hostname (dont use the 1.6 release i wasnt able to connect to a ssid with a dash (-) )

@duy-31 thank you very much for the tip! I've already checked the library and I will let you know as soon as I've chance to test it.
