ESP + Wemos D1 get freezes when wifi connection lost

When the connexion gets lost, the display (oled) is not refreshed because ESP tried to connect and loop is paused (right?).

yes, you are right.

@brice

But some times it stuks here and can’t reconnect so I had to manually restart the device (made my tests very closed to the Internet box).

can you try the same test by uploading the basic esp8266 code from the cayenne library?

@brice

Would-it be possible to let the loop continuing whyl trying to connect (and so refresh screen)?

have a look at this workaround How can i end the {cayenne.loop()} if there is no connection? - #5 by ahmed.blacky.xaver3

@brice

Do you mean that WL_CONNECTED is always true when in the loop? If yes, what would you suggest to update the icon based on the wifi state ?

i mean when wifi is disconnected or no internet, the code goes in an infinite loop to search for connection and stops all the other code. So your entire code is never executed when there is no connection.
