Description

NetworkClient class in ESP32 Arduino Core v3.0.1 always returns IPAddress(0,0,0,0) via localIP() method regardless of which interface is used (AP / STA / AP_STA ).

This was diagnosed as part of my feature request PR: #9842 . The ON_STA_FILTER and ON_AP_FILTER didn't work as intended because localIP was always returned as IPAddress(0,0,0,0).
