- Fri Apr 26, 2019 7:37 am #82043 The ESP is not a router: if you're only connected, via WiFi, to the ESP you're not connected to the internet even when it's set to Station + SoftAP-mode (STA/SoftAP-mode is not meant for that).

If you let your ESP connect (as a client/station) to a router, you can connect to the ESP and the internet through the router.

Alternatively you can install firmware like the ESP Wifi repeater by Martin Ger, but then you'll lose AT command functionality.

Assumption is the mother of all f*ckups. At least: that's what I'm assuming.
