Unfortunately, ESP32 kernel version 1.06 is very outdated. We are unable to support it. You need to use version 3.3.x.

Make sure you're using the latest version of the ESP32 board—v3.3.x.
Try enabling debug output to the serial port by uncommenting

#define REMOTEXY__DEBUGLOG

This will allow you to see if your board is connecting to WiFi and then to the cloud server.

both my esp32u will not connect to the cloud but my esp8266 does with same code,
is there something missing here for the esp32u to work? its a simple switch.....
