Description
Problem Description:
When configuring ESP32-S3 as a Wi-Fi Access Point (softAP) and connecting a specific client device (a particular smartphone), the AP successfully establishes the connection, the client obtains an IP via DHCP, and the AP appears as connected (status shows 1 station).
However, after the initial connection and the first few incoming packets (e.g., an automatic HTTP request from the client immediately after connection), the AP becomes unresponsive to all subsequent incoming traffic from this client. Ping requests time out, and attempts to access the web server fail, even though the client remains connected according to the AP's status and the client's network information.
This behavior is reproducible consistently with the problematic client device. Another client device (tested with a Quest 3 VR headset) connects and communicates with the AP without issues.
