# Fix unreachable net services V2
|
|
|
|
**Attention: This usermod compiles only for ESP8266**
|
|
|
|
This usermod-v2 modification performs a ping request to a local IP address every 60 seconds. This ensures WLED net services remain accessible in some problematic WiFi environments.
|
|
|
|
The modification works with static or DHCP IP address configuration.
|
|
|
|
_Story:_
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, with many ESP projects where a web server or other network services are running, after some time, the connecton to the web server is lost.
|
|
The connection can be reestablished with a ping request from the device.
|
|
|
|
With this modification, in the worst case, the network functions are not available until the next ping request. (60 seconds)
|
|
|
|
## Webinterface
|
|
|
|
The number of pings and reconnects is displayed on the info page in the web interface.
|
|
The ping delay can be changed. Changes persist after a reboot.
|
|
|
|
## JSON API
|
|
|
|
The usermod supports the following state changes:
|
|
|
|
| JSON key | Value range | Description |
|
|
|-------------|------------------|---------------------------------|
|
|
| PingDelayMs | 5000 to 18000000 | Deactivate/activate the sensor |
|
|
|
|
Changes also persist after a reboot.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
