Trying to find an answer on this: multiple connections
Posted: Wed Sep 09, 2015 12:45 amI have an ESP8266, and I thought for fun I would convert a chat server I currently have running in a Linux VM to the ESP8266. Actually, not so much "convert" as "completely rewrite," but you get the idea. It's a fairly low resource system, but it does have to maintain a number of connections-- I've had as many as 16 people on the system in the past.
So, I need to handle multiple connections. I've been searching about for several days, but either I search engine very bad or that information hasn't been asked yet. I understand the Arduino ethernet sheild was single-connection, but the ESP handled multiple connections with the AT firmware, so I thought I would ask.
