please advise where to find this two methods for class wifi?

wifi.setphymode() to select a 802.11 mode

and

wifi.sleeptype() to make sure wifi is alway on

have been using them with Lua on ESP8266 and can not find them in Esprunio

They don't exist at this point. I used to turn off 11n in another project because there were issues, but I haven't found that with SDK 1.4, is there a reason you need setphymode?

WRT sleeptype, we haven't worked on sleep stuff yet. Are you trying to disable the DTIM sleep?

setphymode is not as important as sleeptype()

yes, eg like this :

// keep wifi always on
wifi.sleeptype(wifi.NONE_SLEEP)
