This is a fresh Release. Still Beta 0.5 but with significant changes.
I can not document all the steps. Some important guidelines to test this release:
1. Use 115200 baud to flash and debug. It works with all version of ESP. I have tested 5 nodes.
2. Place the nodes more than a meter away from each other to avoid interference [Although modification carried out to avoid channel overlap]
3. Start only one Node [No command needed, just power up] and wait for about 10 sec. The node will be ROOT.
4. Now, switch on other nodes [Better sequentially with gap of 10 sec....but you can try all together]
scan the network and observe your network list...its increasing with various AP.
Observe the ROOT node serial port terminal. You will get the link info from child...grand child...and further.
Now, you may send "AT+PINGROOT" from any child node. The info will propagate through network upto ROOT and that will be displayed.
Please try to keep ROOT alive[there are some bug]. But you can restart any in between nodes [so called router]. The network has been protected from making local cluster.
Cheers ! Waiting for test result from you.
And will release the new version very soon.
[Please avoid lot of debug info in the console....all will be hided in later versions]
