Hi there ^^ While examining examples from the WiFi API, I noticed two different functions called to initiate the access point mode. This example uses WiFi.softAP, while here invokes WiFi.AP.begin and some other functions. Are there separate APIs available for running WiFi in access point mode? Which one is recommended? |

WiFi.AP
andWiFi.STA
are the new interfaces and are cleaner and more understandable.WiFi.softAP
andWiFi.begin
callWiFi.AP.create
andWiFi.STA.connect
respectfully and are kept for backward compatibility
