## Wifi and MQTT configuration portal for Wifi boards

Once loaded into your ESP and if you don't use the manual configuration you have to set your network parameters with wifi manager portal.
From your smartphone search for your OpenMQTTGateway wifi network and connect to it with `WifiManager_password` (the default password is "your_password"), a web page will appear.
Once loaded into your ESP, and if you don't use the manual configuration, you have to set your network parameters with Wifi Manager portal.

From your smartphone, search for  OpenMQTTGateway or OMG wifi network and connect to it with the `WifiManager_password` you have defined (the default password is **"your_password"**), or if you are using a device sold by Theengs or the macro `-DWM_PWD_FROM_MAC=true`, the password will be the last eight digits of the device MAC Address with upper case.
Example, the password would be `CCDDEEFF` for a MAC Address `AABBCCDDEEFF`.
For Theengs devices, the MAC Address can be found on the device sticker, and for all the devices, it is printed on the serial monitor logs.

Once connected to the Wifi, a web page should appear. On Android, you may also have a popup asking you if you want to connect to it without an internet connection. Answer yes always/all the time. If the web page doesn't appear, click on the Wifi Access Point and "Manage router".
