Making the blue blink works . but nothing else does
Posted: Mon Oct 22, 2018 8:08 pmHi Guys,
I am using Win 10 pro on a laptop
I wonder if anyone can put me on right path, as All I have achieved so far is to make an LED blink with the example esp8266 Arduino sketch.
Every sketch that I upload, loads OK (at least the blue led flashes while uploading)
So far I tried:
ESP8266 blink OK It works fine
2 different ESP8266 webservers: load OK. connect OK, than I go to Chrome, and the connection is lost, re-connect- go to Chrome--> connection lost. ( it did it three times)
ESP8266 Accesspoint same story NOgo
And a few more..
An other thing I found, is that to takes a long time for some wifi (connections) to populate the wifi list and some connections just vanish after a few seconds. It seems to be a bit of hit and miss, for me.
I downloaded a code and built the circuit according to what I found on Github, It just does not work.( Double checked everything)
My eventual target is to find a code + circuit to get nmea data transmitted via wifi, but for the time being i am learning how to use the esp8266 properly.
I must be doing something wrong, or miss something as nothing much seems to work properly.
Can anyone offer any suggestions ?? many thanks
