Hello, I very much appreciated the work you put into this. I am quite good at connecting WiFI by both methods and mqtt as well. I would love a more advanced tutorial as I am struggling to understand the relationships between esp/event loops, freertos/ event loops and how rtos tasks and the opportunities or Core 1 and Core 2 could be exploited to simplify code.
Thank you again

The call to esp_wifi_set_default_wifi_sta_handlers() seems to be unnecessary since esp_netif_create_default_wifi_sta() already calls it internally.
Furthermore, esp_wifi_set_mode(WIFI_MODE_STA) is unnecessary when the program does not use AP functionality since station is already the default wifi mode.

I thought I had struck gold when I found this. I need to be able to switch off the wifi and switch it back on again later. I simply modified wifi_tutorial.c by repeating the code twice. Here's what I did in simplified form.

tutorial_init(); tutorial_connect(); tutorial_disconnect(); tutorial_deinit();
tutorial_init(); tutorial_connect(); tutorial_disconnect(); tutorial_deinit();
Does not work.

I also tried
tutorial_init(); tutorial_connect(); tutorial_disconnect();tutorial_connect(); tutorial_disconnect(); tutorial_deinit();
Second connect does not work.

Any thoughts?
