Request: "MQTT client user" too short for my cloud broker

[abaubi]

Hi Martin,

First of all congratulate you for your great job.

I have a request for you. I can't publish or subscribe anything from my cloud broker because my "MQTT client user" is used as the TOKEN to connect to it and it is too short, in fact, it is too short for just 3 characters.

In addition to this, there are some cloud brokers that they need a longer "MQTT_client password" too.

By the way, there are a correction to do in the readme file in your github:
set mqtt_user password: Password for authentication -> set mqtt_password password...

I'd really appreciate you could increase the size of this configuration variables in next firmware update.

Thanks and keep it up!

Hi martin

I tested the new version, as you can see, mqtt_user and mqtt_password are still truncated. MQTT client is still disconnected.

I stay tunned for next version.

Sorry, you were asking for the mqtt_id. You may fix it yourself easily be recompiling it with changed constants in user_config.h. We do it in the next version...
