ESP8266 Community Forum

I'm having a little trouble to get my new ESP8266-12F (http://www.dx.com/p/406606) to do anything. I can flash any firmware just fine (via nodemcu flasher or using the arduino IDE), but after that it doesn't do anything. After pulling GPIO0 high (instead of pulling low for flashing) it doesn't respond to any AT commands, I can't upload anything to it using ESPlorer and if I uploaded an Arduino sketch it doesn't do anything either (for example a sketch that should make it an access point, but no access point available...) Am I doing something wrong? All are pulled up/down by a 10k resistor
GPIO15 -> pull-down
GPIO2 -> pull-up
GPIO0 -> pull-up
CH_PD -> pull-up
REST -> pull-up
TX -> RX
RX -> TX
VCC -> VCC
GND -> GND
