I got NodeMCU working and got telnet working in it. How do i upload an lua file thru the network without ever using the serial ? I want to use the serial for GPIO.

thx, so that's windows only right ? Can i after i do this use terminal to upload or does it have to be thru this specific app you have developed ?

- Tue Dec 23, 2014 2:55 pm #5561 While the idea of using Telnet is great, don't you think you're going to lose a reasonable amount of valuable RAM doing this?

Did you check how much RAM is left with and without the Telnet code installed?
