not working with static IP on esp8266

[Necrosaurus]

Thanks for this library, unfortunately I cant get it to work when i have a static IP assigned (in the script) to my ESP8266. Is there something I'm doing wrong or an easy way around this (other than setting the IP on the router).
Any help appreciated
thanks

Did you try something like this? It worked for me.

void setup() {
		WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
		IPAddress ip1 = ipaddr_addr("192.168.0.202");
		IPAddress ip2 = ipaddr_addr("192.168.0.1");
		IPAddress ip3 = ipaddr_addr("255.255.255.000");
		IPAddress ip4 = ipaddr_addr( "8.8.8.8" );//dns 1
		IPAddress ip5 = ipaddr_addr( "8.8.4.4" );//dns 2
		if ( ip1 != 0 ){
			WiFi.config(ip1, ip2, ip3, ip4, ip5);
		} 
		while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
			delay(500);
			Serial.print(".");
		timeClient.begin();
               }
}
void loop() 
{
	if (timeClient.update())
		ets_printf("OK\n");
	ets_printf(timeClient.getFormattedTime().c_str());
	ets_printf("%d\n",timeClient.getEpochTime());
	delay(1000);
}

Thanks freeck!
adding the 2 dns variables to the wifi.config fixed it,

If you use Arduino IDE with <ESP8266WiFi.h> there is a different order for the arguments in the config-statement See the comment in the source code: //ESP argument order is: ip, gateway, subnet, dns1
//Arduino arg order is: ip, dns, gateway, subnet.

So after lots of trouble i changed my config in WiFi.config(STATICIP, DNS1, GATEWAY, SUBNET) and everything works smooth now. The comment means that if you use ESP-IDE (?) the argument order is: ip, gateway, subnet, dns1. When you use Aduino IDE (for ESP8266) the argument order is: ip, dns, gateway, subnet._
