How to Make Two ESP8266 Talk


https://www.electronics-lab.com/how-to-make-two-esp8266-talk/

Rui Santos shows us how to make two ESP8266 to talk: In this project you’re going to make two ESP8266 talk with each other. How it works? You’re going to set one ESP as an Access Point (Server) and another ESP as a Station (Client). Then they’ll establish a wireless communication and the Client sends […]
