ESP constantly flipping between connect and disconnect status

HI,

after latest Home Assistant update 2022.5.4, my esp32dev is constantly flipping between connect and disconnect status

anyone has any ideas?

Put some distances between your Wifi AP and the ESP ! Looks to receive way too much of Wifi signal !
Have you checked also your ESP is well powered ?

Thank you,
I will do some tests, what sounds strange is that it worked without issues for months
and I just surfaced the issue after the last update

I should have another spare esp32, I will try to replace it as well

@vincen , thank you for your suggestions

Regards

Post your yaml file for the device, please.

Just a few things I’ve seen with esp32s. Hope it helps you and others.

Could be lack of current on the power supply. esp32 can use a lot more then say a computers usb supply for example.
Could be too large of code. Anything over 48ish % the compiler doesn’t know that’s too large and will cycle.
Could be a error in your code. The compiler sometimes does not recognize bad code. In your case maybe a breaking change.
Could be an old router or out of date firmware on your router. New ubiquiti ap’s fixed my esp32’s from tons of disconnects.

Could just need to power cycle your router or ap.

HI,

I’m using this guy to convert from 12v to 5v

what is strange is that it started this behavior few days ago

stevemann · May 17, 2022, 12:48pm

What are we looking at in the last image? Did you do the update to 222.5.4 on the morning of May 14.
Thanks for the code. It didn’t show anything suspicious but I learned something from reading it.
I don’t think changing the ESP will fix it, but if it’s easy to swap, try it. (I try to socket all of my projects).

Is the ESP connecting/reconnecting or is it rebooting? Can you monitor the debug output on a terminal?

What about the PSU/Converter? I’ve had one of those fail on me a few months ago.

bremby · May 17, 2022, 3:57pm

Hi,

The latest image is one of the sensors that the ESP is tracking, most of the time it was OFF (I have the stats since April) but after May 14 the sensor becomes “Unavailable” based on the continuous API connect/disconnect flip. all the sensors are showing the same behavior/time

Yes, I did the update to the 2022.5.4 on May 14

I think that the behavior is probably connecting/reconnecting

I also see an high TTL for the ping

here 3hrs statistics summary

I changed the code to load only the esp settings without the UART and all the sensors (just to exclude some unexpected load with the serial communication) but the results are the same

I’m now looking at the wifi or (as you suggested) at the PSU/Converter (but I need to buy another one as I don’t have a spare part to test it “quickly”)

regards

bremby · May 17, 2022, 4:21pm

if this can help

stevemann · May 17, 2022, 4:22pm

Just out of curiosity, can you restore a snapshot from prior to the update? If the problem goes away you could be looking at a real bug. (Do a current snapshot before the restore).

Joe3 · May 17, 2022, 8:15pm

Do you have other EPS32s working good on your network? Is this just the only one disconnecting?

If others are working good. Try disconnecting one of them and seeing how long they take to rejoin the network and check if they cycle connections a few time before a solid connection.

What ESP32 board are you using? I’ve had the worst luck with the ESP32cam. Constant reconnects until I changed my Router/AP.

Start with basic code on that device. See if the problem is the code. If this solves the problem and then work up from there.
Add your code back until you start seeing the disconnects.

bremby · May 18, 2022, 4:22pm

I can’t switch back; this time I didn’t create the snapshot

bremby · May 18, 2022, 4:50pm

this is the only ESP I have connected with the WIFI, I have shelly devices connected to same wifi but they work without any issue
i’m using an ESP32-WROOM-32D, v4 i think

image622×616 55.7 KB

this is the log of the binary sensor that I’m using to check the status

binary_sensor:
  # Connection status
  - platform: status
    name: ${friendly_name} Status

as you can see, there was on the previous days a kind of series, it was unavailable for 6h, then available for 1h, and then back to unavailable for 6h and so on
but today the time is different. however, even when it shows unavailable, I’m able to ping it (really high ttl and 4-5% of packet lost)

i can also connect and see the logs using the esphome add-on

i did, same result

Joe3 · May 18, 2022, 10:05pm

What router brand and age are you using?

If you cleared the code just to the basics and still get disconnects, I bet your router don’t like your esp32.

Slim chance it’s a bad esp32, but it could be.

A new router from best buy or amazon are amazingly cheap to get the latest wifi protocols.

stevemann · May 19, 2022, 1:26am

No snapshot? Bummer.
Just out of curiosity, have you restarted the router?

bremby · June 14, 2022, 8:09pm

Sorry, but all the tests required sometimes
After I added another AP, after I changed the location and orientation of esp32, after I moved the antenna position
The real fix was the easiest one: Reboot the router: frowning:

Thank you for the support all of you provided to me, next time I will start with the basic instead of becoming crazy with the complex one

stevemann · June 14, 2022, 8:11pm

As soon as something doesn’t make sense, reboot the router.
