I just got the board and set it up I went to the IP address It gave me and I put in a password that I made and like a dummy I put in the wrong password and now I can’t remember what I put in I was just wondering if there was a way to reset the password on the IP address that they gave me or if anybody has run into any problem like this. Or if anybody knows how to reset it
Which board and what firmware?
Use the eeprom erase sketch for that. Ssid and passwd are saved in the eeprom (starting at location 4) just erase the entire eeprom and reprogram the esp with your sketch.
I made the flash button (gpio15) also work as an erase button for the eeprom. Flashbutton is only needed at boot so you’re free to use it in your sketch.
The wifimanager (arduino lib) has a specific function to do just that.
I’m trying to deauther gave me a IP address to go to I put it in the wrong password I just need to know how to reset the password on the website I gave me
It does have a reset button and a flash button I press the reset button and it didn’t do anything

Ah i see. You’re using nodeMCU. Than the only option is to install “esptool” on a linux or osx computer.
Then you could use the “flash:erase” function.
Check this link out: https://github.com/espressif/esptool
Read the http://readme.md file for instructions.
@Mano_Biletsky_Open_M I really appreciate the help. Does it have to be a Mac or Linux I have a pc
You can do it on pc too but you will need to install some libraries and a bash/shell/terminal application.
Though while googling i found this:
http://ezbitz.com/esp8266-esptool-for-windows/
I just ordered a new one there cheap and I only need it for one thing. But I will pay much more attention next time lol, and we have one Mac in the house so I will use it. Your help and going out of your way to help me is outstanding, thanks again
@Brian_Sketers you’re most welcome!
