Help with a basic example?
Posted: Wed Jan 06, 2016 8:30 pmI followed the steps in this guide -- http://makezine.com/2015/04/01/installi ... ontroller/ -- using a 3.3v FTDI to connect to the esp board.
The example sketch compiles, and I've been able to get it uploaded successfully.
However, in the next step, when I power cycle the esp board and disconnect from the GPIO_0 pin, I don't see any output in the serial console monitor.
So I tried finding the device on my router, by looking at the list of connected devices, and it doesn't seem to be there.
How will the board id itself? As "esp8266", or would it have no name?
Finally, what is the string I should use for the password?
My router uses WPA, so I used the output of wpa_passphrase essid "passphrase" but would the passphrase by itself work?
