| Aug 7, 2017 at 7:02 | comment | added | user37116 | @ MatsK Since I can now disable the WiFi, I don't think there is any point in posting the code. However, if you could help with my confusion about firmware I mentioned in my question, it would be most appreciated | |
| Aug 7, 2017 at 6:51 | comment | added | user37116 | @ Jaromanda X Thanks so much, I had included the wrong library because I forgot to change from "Arduino Pro Mini" to "Generic ESP8266 Module". After selecting the right board, the code uploaded without error and this seems to have solved my problem since I no longer see the esp8266 in the list of available WiFi connections. I'm still very confused as to how the WiFi got turned on in the first place, and about the question of firmware. I think I will post another question about this subject. | |

Did you #include <ESP8266WiFi.h> ?

| Aug 7, 2017 at 5:21 | comment | added | user37116 | @ MatsK I use the Arduino IDE to flash my esp8266, and tried adding "WiFi.forceSleepBegin();" in the "void setup () {" section, but uploading gave an error about not being in the "scope". So I tried Sketch > Include Library > Contributed Libraries > WiFi This time the uploading error was "'class WiFiClass' has no member named 'forceSleepBegin'" I don't know how to post the code I'm running, but I'm trying to learn how. When I do, I will post the code as per your request. Thanks | |
