Unpredictable pairing with Homekit about arduino-homekit-esp8266 HOT 7 OPEN

It is really strange. Full logs will help maybe (in a txt file, keeping DEBUG log disabled is enough).

from arduino-homekit-esp8266.

Thanks fro your answer.
Here are 3 consecutive tries.

• Homekit_8266_verify_step_1_2.log : The process seems to be stopped after pairing in the middle of the verification.

• Homekit_8266_pair_step_3_3.log : The process seems to be working as far as pairing is concerned but then the socket is disconnected.

• Homekit_8266_lost_loop.log : It looks like everything is fine but the iOS device can't still register the accessory.

And sometimes, it works.

Thanks for your help.

Regards.

I can't make '...1_2.log' and '...3_3.log' happen on my devices. The '...loop.log' is caused by 'Setup Step 2/3' is too slow that iOS disconnects by timeout, but it happens rarely and you should reboot your ESP to retry.

I guess your problems are caused by your network environment. Maybe you can try

• another router, e.g. a 2.4G only router (not 5G, not dual band), and make sure your iOS and ESP connect to same network. Refer to issues/12
• another ESP board. Some boards may have hardware issues leads to a weak WiFi connection.

I'll try that. Thanks for your help.
I'll keep you posted.

Did you compile with 160MHz CPU frequency?

i faced this issue in case that esp was connected to laptop with port monitor.
