After changing the default password and rejoining the network with the new SSID password, the device (Wemos D1 R2) changed its IP address to 192.168.244.1.

That IP is hardcoded in the ESP8266WiFiAP class and will be used when the original request to create an access point fails. So there is no way to change it.

The reason for the AP failing is not defined. Some people states this happens when there is flash corruption. Erasing the flash solves the problem. Not a good thing, thou.

There is nothing that can be done from the ESPurna side here except maybe using captive portal to hit the board in AP mode, whatever it's IP is, already possible but maybe the mDNS should use a general name like "espurna" so all boards will be accessible at "http://espurna.local". Anyway this won't solve flash corruption if there is any.

With version 1.6.4 the board in AP mode is accessible (whatever its IP is) in "http://espurna.local"
