Great. Thanks for sharing updates that your issue has been resolved with external antenna. I suggest like if you have really good range requirement and your ESP32 board is used into Enclosure then I would suggest to use external antenna instead of in-built antenna.I've discovered there can be an issue with the antenna on the esp32s3 devkit c (at least with some of the clones). Try putting your finger on the antenna & see if it solves the problem. My board would connect out of the enclosure but not in the enclosure when the antenna was close to other parts. I ended up doing the external antenna mod which worked a treat.
Also, you need to make sure placement of antenna in such as way that less interference would be there.
Still let me know if you have any query for the same.
