Hello, I'm fairly new to arduino/embedded things. I'm very new to esp8266. I purchased an esp8266 as it seemed to be the simplest and most cost effective way to connect my arduino project to the internet. I swear I've read everything I can find and am still failing.
I'm not even to a point of trying to figure out the code as I have been struggling with the physical connections. I'm using a 3.3v power supply and have tried connecting the esp-rx pin via a resistor circuit to reduce the voltage. I now get AT+RST on the serial monitor which is a huge step forward from getting nothing. At the same time, the blue light on the esp is on constantly and I don't believe it should be.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
