I can't connect to the Internet with my Pi Zero.
Do I have a wrong opinion of that ESP8266?
Is it a WiFi module to connect the Pi to the Internet?
Thx

If you are referring to this board, the answer is this board cannot connect the Pi to the Internet.
https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/esp8266-phatThis module is not a replacement for a WiFi dongle! It is designed for people who wish to experiment with the ESP8266 platform - if you just want WiFi connectivity you'd be better off using the Official Raspberry Pi WiFi Dongle instead.
