ESP8266 Community Forum

Hi,

I'm using the ESP8266 wireless transceiver module with an Arduino UNO. The module is working as expected (I've tested my configuration with several sample projects I found on the net).

For ease of testing I've set things up so that I can communicate directly with the ESP8266 via the Serial Monitor window. Here are the commands I use to get things going:



Ok... what is the next step? How do I receive the data that gets sent back from the ntp server? I know I can use the "AT+CIPSEND" to send data but what command(s) do I use to receive data?

Any advice would be much appreciated!

When data is received, it is automatically sent out the serial port. Each packet received produces an output that starts with "+IPD". See the +IPD row in the AT command table at the link below:

Thank you so much for your reply. Would you happen to know of any example code which does this? It seems to me that this would be a very common thing to do but I haven't seen any sample code that works.

Thank you in advance!

There is a library for this: https://github.com/Diaoul/arduino-ESP8266
