MQTT error about espblinds HOT 4 CLOSED

It's very hard to know the issue with that little info, but my guess is that it can't find the MQTT server, or it can't authenticate with it

from espblinds.

How's do I make the ESP8266 find the MQTT server?
Also what information would you need? Should I copy paste the code so that you can cross check it?

I would make sure that you're ESP8266 is successfully connecting to your Wifi, and that you have the MQTT_SERVER IP address correctly set to the IP address of the computer that is running MQTT.

The MQTT server needs to be on the same network that your ESP8266 is connecting to, and you will need to make sure that the computer running the MQTT server is not blocking any connections - e.g. with a firewall or similar.

What's your MQTT server setup? E.g. what computer OS is it running on, which MQTT server software are you using, and which port is the MQTT server software running on?

@se1exin Sorry for the late reply.

set to the IP address of the computer that is running MQTT.

Do you mean the IPv4, the internet's IP adress?

I have all the firewalls turned off
