WiFI

In the following examples, I will be using the NodeMCU development board and will program it with the Arduino software. Hopefully you have already set-up your ESP8266 development environment and were able to load the blink sketch. If not please follow this tutorial first. ESP8266 WiFi station mode example The ESP8266 can communicate over WiFi in two different modes. It can connect to an existing wireless hot spot, or access point, similar to the way you connect your phone or computer to the Internet. This is called “station” mode. In station mode the ESP8266 board can reach out to the internet and may also communicate with other devices connected to the same network, including other ESP8266 modules. Here is a simple example. Remember to replace the values for the ssid and password variables with the name and password for your wireless network! ...
