How to Assign a Static / Fixed IP Address | ESP8266 | ESP32 | Arduino

Mish Mash Labs present how to set a static of fixed IP address for your Espressif ESP8266, ESP32 or Arduino Board.
If you’re running a web server or client over WiFi or Ethernet with your Espressif ESP8266, ESP32 or Arduino Board and every time you restart your board it has a new IP address which is what happens when you use the default DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) you can follow this tutorial to change the settings to assign a static or fixed IP address.
Code used:
Before the setup loop:
// Set your Static IP Address Settings
IPAddress local_IP(192, 168, 1, 199);
IPAddress gateway(192, 168, 1, 1);
IPAddress subnet(255, 255, 0, 0);
IPAddress primaryDNS(8, 8, 8, 8); // this is optional
IPAddress secondaryDNS(8, 8, 4, 4); // this is optional
In the setup loop:
// Print feedback if the settings are not configured
if (!WiFi.config(local_IP, gateway, subnet, primaryDNS, secondaryDNS)) {
Serial.println("STA Failed to configure");
}

Thanks so much bro i really needed this for a school project ive been strugging to find a way so the ip is constant and wont change.
Once again thank you so much!

[@meryamhad2916]

did this work?

[@enredao_electronico2737]

Nice explainned. It would be interesting (if you are running a bult in webserver in the ESPXX) :1- Begin as AP (Access Point) with predefined Host. 2- Once your device get connected to the AP through built in webserver, have the ability to SCAN near by WIFI SSIDs (including your Wifi router) . 3- After selection and reboot you get logged and ESPXX became STA (station) .4- Since you are connected to it through webserver and your SOHO router asigned an IP (DHCP method) , will be outstanding to have the option to do that particular IP Fixed. It is a long process but once (in my opinion) you get it done would be easier for an "End-User" instead of using Arduino/VScode IDE.

[@MishMashLabs]

That's a really nice idea. And it has so many applications for IoT prototypes, I guess you would need to use eeprom or some form of memory and maybe a button on a GPIO pin to use a reset to the hardcoded AP setting you mentioned, perhaps I'll give it a go in a few weeks.

[@enredao_electronico2737]

@@MishMashLabs you are right ! it would need a "Factory default" (hard-Switch or Software) and should keep saved the parameters on eeprom ( ESP32XX flash memory) . If you decide to you go into that that would be interesting . Thanks for A Detailed Yet Simple to Understand Guide.

This is so useful and I'm so surprised... You're the only one I've seen share this information

My god, i just thank you a lot, this video helped me so much that i can-t find the right words to express my joy ☺

You're very welcome. This is the reason we make videos.

As always people that deserves credits dont get them.. I watched perhaps 100 videos trying to to do what you made me (understand) in 4 minutes... No words to thank you and sorry for my english.

Thanks for the kind words George! Please like the video and subscribe if you enjoy the style and content. This is a marathon project. Not a sprint!

[@jgunther3398]

i got some errors when i complied your gethub file, but was able to get the info to do what i needed. i guess there are a lot of different libraries out there. thanks!!!

[@poruatokin]

This is wonderful stuff. You deserved a larger following.

[@MishMashLabs]

Thanks for the support Paul!

[@fernsgilbert]

thanks a lot. Worked fine for me except one error > Serial.printIn is not recognised so changed to > Serial.print

[@MishMashLabs]

Hi there,
Both are correct, the difference is Serial.println starts printing on a new line from the next Serial.print or Serial.println function. While Serial.print will continue on the same line.
You may have had another error if there was an issue uploading, missing a semicolon perhaps?
Thanks for the feedback!

what if I use ESPAsyncWebServer instead of Webserver?

[@mohammadhosienanji5885]

Thanks for this video. I did as the video but the IP that serial sent is different from the IP that I see in my phone's hotspot.(IP is as previous). What's the problem?

[@MishMashLabs]

Each device on a network will have a unique IP. The range should be the same, for example if your phone/hotspot IP is 192.168.0.1, your ESP can be 192.168.0.X where X can be any number between 2-254.

[@isxckk.]

For me it does not work, i am trying to give my ESP8266 (That is functioning as a server for some domotica devices) a static IP, it is connected to my laptop hotspot. But for some reason it does not stay static..
