Doesn’t work with modem Archer VR1600v, tried reboot and clearing cookies. Connections name remains ‘Unknown’ but mac and ip are correct.

In reply to Eric Cadieux. Did it work after restarting the router or just after uploading the code? I have many people working in an organization so cannot take risk to restart the router.

I copy pasted the code, tried it and it works, but when I scan the network there is a dot (.) added to the end of the hostname and I have to put that dot to access the ESP8266. Am I the only one with that issue and how can I solve it ?

Thank you

The device list in router interface may require removing browser cookie for the router to show the changes.
