Ping timeout (IDFGH-10552) #11792

baldhead69 · 2023-07-03T14:57:13Z

Answers checklist.

I have read the documentation ESP-IDF Programming Guide and the issue is not addressed there.
I have updated my IDF branch (master or release) to the latest version and checked that the issue is present there.
I have searched the issue tracker for a similar issue and not found a similar issue.

General issue report

Hi,

I am trying to ping my AP to confirm that the esp-idf icmp lib( lwIP ) is working, but a timeout occur.

My desktop is connected to same access point and pinging from desktop to access point is ok.
Pinging to esp32-s3 from desktop is ok too.

What may be the problem ?

Your project worked, thank's.

I will take a better look at your code.

My project have a websocket server running on it.

Could it be that the websocket server is causing the error in my project ?

Hi,

Problem solved.

I changed( put it ) this in my code:

ESP_ERROR_CHECK( esp_wifi_set_ps( WIFI_PS_NONE ) );
target_addr.type = IPADDR_TYPE_V4;

But i think that the responsible for the non-functioning was only the lack of this: "target_addr.type = IPADDR_TYPE_V4;"

Thank's again @nopnop2002.

Please espressif, fix the example once and for all.

@baldhead69 do yo have IPv6 capable local network?

But i think that the responsible for the non-functioning was only the lack of this: "target_addr.type = IPADDR_TYPE_V4;"

I don't think we should restrict the example to support the IPv4 only networks. In case users don't want to use IPv6 they could simply disable it and the example would work as IPv4 only. Do you see any issue with that?

Hi @david-cermak ,

In principle this problem is solved for me.

Could you help me with this ?
