Can't connect D1 Mini NodeMcu ESP8266-12F with computer
Posted: Fri May 06, 2022 1:52 pmHello,
I am trying to make a circuit with a serial commuication between a arduino and a esp8226 (they are not yet connected), but currently I am struggling to even connect the esp8266 with my computer. I already added the "Additional Board Manager URL" which was given in the instructions, downloaded the "esp8266 board manager". When I am plugging in the usb cabel from the esp8266 to my computer, other via usb connected devices disconnect, like my arduino.
Output from lsusb before connecting the esp:
Output from lsusb after connecting the esp:
The same happens when i try to connect the esp8266 on another computer, which is running windows:
It would be great if somebody could tell me what am i doing wrong. Thanks in advance.
