Which version on ESP32 are you using?

sure - here we go:
ESP32-C5 , ESP32-P4 , ( ESP32-C61) just in time.
also ESP8284 ESP8285 ESP8266 ESP31B ESP32 ESP32-S2 ESP32-S3 ESP32-C2 ESP32-C3 (4)
and also and earlier type but it is not so important yet, sometimes on the ESP64, CHIP7,
why?



I would like to bring to your attention that there seems to be a bug likewise with the Bulletin Board System (BBS) ( Forum). Users are experiencing ( SQL ) connection problems, ( not enough ports see screenshot from PC ) which may impact the overall usability of the forum. It would be great if the technical team could investigate this issue to ensure a smoother experience for all ( more ) members.

thank you
best wishes

Yep. Some fly-by-night (no proper user agent) crawler decided to hit our forum from like 30 different IPs. They're blocked now.

I hope they will solve this issue soon.
