- Mon Nov 03, 2014 8:10 pm #2213 I didn't use level converters.

For the nano, I used an external 3.3v regulator (with a common ground with the nano).

ch_pd was pulled to 3.3v always.

Note that I upgraded the firmware to 0922 version from here the http://www.electrodragon.com/w/Wi07c
so the hardware serial runs at 9600 by default.

I see a blue flash or two when it boots first .....

Also worth just using a serial converter, 3.3v and serial terminal (coolterm or something) - just to check that the basic AT commands are what you expect.

- Tue Nov 04, 2014 7:16 pm #2246 @tao13, just to add.... Baud rate is either 115200 or 9600...
Older versions 115200 and the latest ESP8266 are 9600... try both...

Code: Select allSerial.begin(115200);

Newer firmware (is that what it's called ) 0018000902 uses 9600 as default but can be changed manually once you connect that is...

it works ch pin wasn't connected.

how can i modify a firmware and upload it in esp module?
anybody tried to change default ip address for esp server ? or make it with static ip?
i understood it has a predefined address like 192.168.4.1 , but if we have a network with 192.168.1.xxx address we can not work with server
will be greate if we work with esp module like web server can put a static ip

- Wed Mar 18, 2015 2:36 pm #12207 Hello: Great you got it working. Do you have a picture of the connections? And did you use a USB to UART converter such as this [url]Replace FT232 6Pin USB 2.0 to TTL UART Module Serial Converter CP2102 STC. I am wondering if a USB to UART is even necessary since it looks like you were able to make it work. Clarification appreciated.
