ESP8266 Community Forum

Hi to everyone, completely new in this ESP world.
I had my ESP8266 running AT commands correctly, but at some point I used the instruction to set the baud rate at 9600 but apparently I made a typo, and set another baudrate because I cant connect at 9600, or at any of the defaults baud rates on the Arduino IDE. In other words, I don't now what baud I have on my module. Is there a way to restore the firmware without knowing the baud rate?? I've never flashed a firmware before

Thank you very much!

You don't say which board you are using (the ESP8266 comes on many different boards and the approach to flashing will depend on which one you are using) nor which operating system you use.

If you don't know which board you have, just take a photograph of it and we shall be able to tell what it is.

You should rest assured that this is not a difficult problem to resolve.

Hi lotus, thanks for your reply. Now I believe that my problem was an incomplete flashing process... I have two boards, the ESP-12 and the other one with only 2 GPIOs,, I've made the same on the two boards . I opened another thread explainig the "correct" problem

Thanks
