![ESP32 Flash](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/wled/original/1X/e340d6c2a4a689fc0adebc218a052655619d6105.png) I can’t seem to get WLED working on esp32. I have successfully uploaded blink sketch through Arduino IDE. with pyflasher as in picture I get nothing. I uploaded a sketch to establish home wifi connection and print out issued IP address and command prompt ping, sent 4 packets, received 4 packets, loss 0. I then reflashed WLED and again nothing. I ping again and 4 sent and 4 received. with the little knowledge I have about this stuff I am stumped. I have done over a dozen 8266’s with no problems. this 32 has me scratching my head. any idea’s, thank you.

I was never able to get that to work. I use ESPHome-Flasher without issues.
