Unable to Connect via URL in Web Client on a LilyGo T3V1.6

[1337Reaper]

I am attempting to connect to my LilyGo T3V1.6 via the web client over wifi, but I am running into some issues:

• Client connects via serial no problem
• Connected via wifi, being served an IP address, is reachable by ping, though high time stats (6-87ms, sometimes timing out), NTP is working properly
• attempting to connect via https using meshtastic.local or by IP address fails
• attempted to self-host the web client and access via http and it also fails
• when attempting to access via Brave using https I get the error: The connection was reset OR ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
• when connecting directly via http I am told that the webserver is running but "The content you are looking for can't be found. Please see: FAQ"
• BT is disabled, wifi is enabled
• When accessing via https, no cert is offered for acceptance
• attempting to connect via web client using http or https addresses meshtastic.local or IP fails

I'm using the latest alpha firmware and this is a fresh install with memory wiped. Please let me know if there's any more information I can provide.

Exact same problem with the LilyGo T-Beam v1.2. Using firmware 2.7.15.567b8ea with full wipe. Tried Brave, Opera on my desktop and Brave on my mobile connected to my LAN over Wifi. I get debug output, but no web management ui.

Hello @FrankenLab and @1337Reaper

I'm not sure that anyone is getting the web interface to work for http or Bluetooth. The web interface is a relatively new component, replacing a web server that lived on the device itself.

Rather than simply fixes for those two issues, the web interface is a candidate for a complete overhaul, rather than repair. There is more there that doesn't work. It has some annoying behavior, like moving the cards around on your screen anytime you click on the action button.

To accomodate those who anticipate using Meshtastic in a disaster situation when there is no Internet, it would be useful to have the web server packaged for installation on the user's own machine, rather than downloading it at each use from meshtastic.org. Yes, you can do it now, but you have to build it yourself. Once the code is more stable, then we might have a downloadable gadget. Give it some time.

Have a look at #1045.
