Hello!
I have an ESP32 (“AZDelivery ESP32 Board Dev Kit C V4 NodeMCU” - 240 MHz, 520 KB RAM, 4 MB Flash) with BT proxy running. There is no ethernet connection. Below is my esp32-bt-proxy.yaml file content:
substitutions:
name: "esp32-bt-proxy"
friendly_name: "ESP32 Bluetooth Proxy"
packages:
esphome.bluetooth-proxy: github://esphome/bluetooth-proxies/esp32-generic/esp32-generic.yaml@main

wifi:
ssid: !secret router_ssid

power_save_mode: LIGHT
manual_ip:

This codes comes from setting up via the Bluetooth Proxy installer website (with slight adjustments from me, e.g. use of !secrets). It apparently creates another (shorter) code than what is explained on ESPHome Bluetooth Proxy, which leaves me a bit puzzled.
I am unsure about the power_save_mode, which is not mentioned for the BT proxy. Do I have to set it at all? Does it affect only Wifi or also BT? If also the latter, should I better set power_save_mode to NONE (instead of LIGHT)?
EDIT1:
When I set it to NONE, I learn this:
power_save_mode NONE is incompatible with esp32_ble. Please remove the power save mode. See also With update to esphome v1.19 BLE Tracker on ESP32-S causes issue · Issue #2141 · esphome/issues · GitHub
So I keep it as LIGHT, but my other question, if this affects only Wifi or also BT, still remains.
EDIT2:
I replaced the log level value INFO by DEBUG and provide the output here for completeness:

Apart from the power save mode, is there anything else that I missed or overlooked and should correct?
The log looks ok to my understanding.
Thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts!
