Remarkable difference between Wemos D1 and NodeMCU

[consolacion]

I am not sure if this is an issue, but I find it interesting.
Tried the code on Wemos D1. Everything works no problems.
The module logs on on 192.168.1.107 and if I go to that ip I see the text of ḧumidifier control and everything works.
However, when I loaded the same code on a NodeMCU, that worked as well, but, when I happened to check my AP list, I noticed there was a new AP named AI-Thinkerxxxxxx, which ofcourse was my NodeMCU. I connected to that one, went to 192.168.4.1.. also got the "Humidifier Control" screen that was working perfectly albeit publicly accessible to everyone.
I checked again with the Wemos D1: no AP, just webserver on my LAN, checked NodeMCU again: AP AND webserver on my LAN, working simultaneously.
Interesting
