Shorter Scan or Connection Duration

Scan or Connection Duration 

  1. Channel selection

Within FCC domain, there are 11 channels. 

Channel 1, 6, 11 overlaps and are designated social channels. The longer the scan channel list, the longer will be the scan and connection duration. 

 

To scan all channel

  • #define MY_DEFAULT_CHANNEL_LIST {}

 

To scan selected channels

  • #define MY_DEFAULT_CHANNEL_LIST {1,6,11}

 

2. Delay timing 

Within the stack software, there are numerous delays added in. 

These selected delay time may be optimized or changed to use shorter delay time. 

 

Example: 

In WFEasyConfigProcess(), when softAP enters Hibernate mode, a delay is executed before exiting Hibernate mode. 

DelayMs(50); // SOFTAP_ZEROCONF_SUPPORT. Timing reduced from 200 to 50. 

Delay timing was originally set to 200msec and then optimized to 50msec. 

The delay timing has not been tested on actual products and are just recommended values.
