Hardcoded Wi-Fi credentials -- does it work? about esp-homekit-sdk HOT 2 CLOSED

@Cosmo , the primary difference in the Wi-Fi configuration when you use hard coded credentials is this. Please try setting this value to false and let me know if it works.

Even if this indeed works, it would be nice if you can test the simple Wi-Fi station example from esp-idf with your AP and if you see similar behaviour, file an issue on esp-idf. If you can get some sniffer captures, that would help too.

@shahpiyushv Thank you very much! I wish I would have asked you earlier :)
I set .capable to false and now my ESP connects and stays connected — perfect!

So when I understand the flag correctly, PMF stands for protected management frames and either my access point doesn't support it or it's disabled.

After a quick check, my router shows that PMF is grayed-out because WPA2+WPA3 is enabled. WPA3 mandates the use of PMF, whereas in WPA2, it's optional. I guess I need to invest a bit more time into this.

Later, I tested the WiFi station example. I set my SSID and password via menuconfig, build and flashed on my device. It worked without any further changes.

So thanks again for saving me a lot of time and a headache.
I really appreciate it. 👍
