No LAN connection ESP8266 gateway

When I saw 2.6.2 I was thinking the MySensors Library (2.3.2)! It never occurred to me it was the board manager.
So, yes! it works for me. :)
I just checked to see if Domoticz has an MQTT interface and it appears that it does. @Bramz, look into that. Once you have that, then it may be easy to connect other devices, like Tasmota devices, to Domoticz. MQTT requires an always-on computer connected to your network.
I have a headless (needs dummy monitor plug or 3x 75Ω resistors to boot), refurbished computer on which I run Linux OS, then both MQTT and Home Assistant running in Virtual Box.
Thanks everyone!

Still, there seems to be 'someting rotten in the state of Network' where my LAN is concerned. Although the Arduino serial monitor says:
13:03:55.821 -> connected with XXX, channel 6 13:03:55.868 -> ip:192.168.178.4,mask:255.255.255.0,gw:192.168.178.1 13:03:55.915 -> ip:192.168.178.4,mask:255.255.255.0,gw:192.168.178.1 13:04:04.826 -> pm open,type:2 0when I ping the IP-address I get:
Pinging 192.168.178.4 with 32 bytes of data: Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Ping statistics for 192.168.178.4: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),When I use the tool 'Wireless Network Watcher' I do see that a device is connected at 192.168.178.4 with the correct MAC address.
However, when I look at the management page of my FritzBox 7490 modem/router no device is mentioned at 192.168.178.4.I remain at a loss here.
