Beginning esp8266 and raspberry pi A
Posted: Thu Nov 09, 2017 8:59 amDear forum members,
I am a complete noob on the MCU topic. I have an old raspberry pi type A with one usb port where I have put my wireless dongle into.
The esp8266 is connected following this schema from instructables.
http://www.instructables.com/id/Connect-an-ESP8266-to-your-RaspberryPi/.
A red led is burning on the esp8266.
On the Pi I have esptool.py and screen installed as well as esptools.
I can see a wireless signal named AI-THINKER_someNumber on my smart phone.
Think I have serial contact with the esp8266
Any other communication is answered with:
The question is how can I change the name and ip address of the wireless?
Please advise,
pablok
